THE TURKISH-GERMAN AFFAIR IN FILMS: A DREAMWORLD OR A NETHERWORLD?
Öz: Turkish society’s perception of Germany has been going through a significanttransformation. This is indisputably related with the crucial role Germany played by nottaking sides with Turkey in its long-lasting attempts to access to the European Union.Through critical discourse analysis, this article explores how Turkish cinematic narrativeshave accounted for the thorny Turkish-German relations in the last two decades. Theanalyzed films, which are the products of the dynamic and heterogeneous new cinema ofTurkey, have contributed to the knowledge produced about Germany, Germans andTurkish-Germans in the media. Therefore, focusing on these cinematic texts should revealalternative modes of reading the enduring Turkish-German affair. As the close textualanalysis has revealed, the films in question refuse the presumed label of “subaltern” forTurkey, and instead, provides a realistic and multifaceted account of said relationship.

Öz: Türk toplumunun Almanya algısı kayda değer bir dönüşümden geçmektedir. Bu dönüşümde, uzun yıllardır süregiden Avrupa Birliği üyeliği girişimlerinde Türkiye’nin yanında yer almayan Almanya’nın rolü yadsınamaz. Bu makale kapsamında, iki ülke arasındaki sözü geçen sorunlu ilişkilerin Türkiye’deki sinemasal anlatılarda nasıl ele alındığı eleştirel söylem analizi yöntemi kullanılarak incelenmektedir. Analize konu edilen filmler, Türkiye’deki dinamik ve heterojen yeni sinema ortamının birer çıktısı olmalarının yanı sıra, genel anlamda Almanya, Almanlar ve Türk-Almanlar’a dair medyadaki temsil ve bilgi üretiminin de bir parçası durumundadır. Bu nedenle, sinemasal metinlere odaklanan eleştirel söylem analizi, Türk-Alman ilişkilerinin popüler kültür perspektifinden alternatif bir okumasını sağlamak adına önem arz etmektedir. Yapılan analizler sonucunda, incelenen filmlerin, Türkiye’ye biçilen “madun” rolünü kabul etmeyerek, Türk toplumunun Almanya’ya bakışını gerçekçi ve çok boyutlu bir biçimde aktardıkları dikkat çekmektedir.
