The Bosphorus International Film Festival is organised by the Bosphorus Culture and Arts Foundation, with support from the General Directorate of Cinema of Turkey’s Ministry of Culture and Tourism.

Alongside its “Focus on Iranian Cinema” programme, the festival’s 14th edition will showcase films from Turkey and around the world through national and international feature film competitions, short film and documentary sections, and special screenings.

International distribution of The Orange Forest and The Wolf’s Fur is handled by the Farabi Cinema Foundation’s International Affairs Department.

The Wolf’s Fur follows Asho, a teenage boy living in a remote village, who decides to take a two-year-old girl named Asma to a more distant village so that her arrival may bring good fortune. An unexpected incident along the way forces Asho to choose between taking Asma back to the village and meeting his own needs.

The Orange Forest tells the story of Sohrab Baharian, an unsuccessful playwright who has recently become a high school teacher. Returning after fifteen years to the town where he once studied, he comes face to face with the truth during a one-day visit…

The 14th Bosphorus International Film Festival will take place in Istanbul, Turkey, from November 8 to 15, 2026.
