Kum Feneri

A lighthouse threatened with collapse, a friend who has moved far away, a home that no longer exists, species that are extinct or endangered, living creatures that have turned to stone, stones that seem to come to life. Is it possible to freeze a place, a person, an object, or a memory in time? What does it mean to preserve something? As the past, future, and present intertwine, how do we confront the effects of time? Where are we standing, in what time, on what ground?

So many things are disappearing from the world and from our lives: dinosaurs, lilies, turtles, an object, a place, a person. What do we do with these missing pieces? How do we cope with the void? We try to bring them back through longing, attempting to stop time; we ignore them, we stubbornly resist, we fight, or we find other ways.

Three friends, Gogo, Pano, and Viki, meet someone new while exploring the ruins of a historic lighthouse undergoing restoration, in the absence of Sakis, who is no longer with the Raptor gang. This person is Mücü, who has wandered far from home. This encounter between Mücü and the Raptor gang will lead to new stories. Through the adventures and games they create, the four friends embark on various journeys, exploring themes of giving up versus protecting, transience versus permanence, endings versus infinity, and the relationship between the past and the present.

Through time, space, eras, moonlight, and the sea, embark on real adventures woven with games...
"Even if the turtle eggs are broken, even if the white lilies wither... Even if our lighthouse crumbles one day, and our paths diverge... Who knows what adventures those turtles must have experienced before they parted ways... All the way to the end of the road!"
