You & Me

Award winning short by Swiss-Turkish director Esen Isik, who graduated from the Zurich University of the Arts and has been winning prizes for her film work since. YOU & ME is a modern short about two girls navigating their teen years. Different cultural backgrounds and the sterile apartment building in the suburbs are not Linda and Sevilay’s problem. The problem for these two 15-year-old friends is their messed up parents. What the two teenagers really want to do is run away. Things come to a head on Linda’s birthday.
