Glassy Stares (Donuk Bakışlar)

Twin brothers Tayfun and Taykan, live at a retirement home although they are in their early forties. They are both passionately committed to music. Having named their music band "Glassy Stares" and isolated themselves from life, the twins spend their time with writing and composing songs.

Glassy Stares is an ecstatic insight into truth amid the fogs of schizophrenia. It is knotting guitar strings in restoring torn ties with the real. It is a tribute to becoming music while going beyond making music. It is a story of brotherhood in which the agents mingle with each other.
