An aspiring actress, Gülşah, prepares herself for the auditions of an acting school. A famous actor Levent who works in the theatre she’s a volunteer in, also a jury member for her audition, sexually harasses her. Reality and film mix. To fulfill her dreams she has to fight with several patriarchs.
Inspired by a line from Shakespeare, this razor-sharp short from Özgürcan Uzunyaşa reveals the subtle ways male privilege perpetuates itself in a theater school. Weaving together disparate threads into a portrait of righteous fury, Hell Is Empty delivers constant visual and emotional surprises.
