Feature Film in Post Production

SYNOPSIS
​​
Of Love and Demons - follows 16 year old Alex, growing up in a conservative German town in the 1990s. Under his strict father's pressure and feeling lost, Alex falls for Sibel, a Turkish classmate. But Sibel is also pursued by Iskender, a dominant local teen.
Drawn to Iskender’s gang and longing to belong, Alex explores Islam—at first to impress Sibel, then as a path to something deeper. As his transformation intensifies, he risks losing touch with who he is.
Of Love And Demons is a coming-of-age myth about love, faith, and identity, exploring how far one might go to feel accepted—and what may be lost along the way.
