ENES GÜÇ is a Berlin-based director and multidisciplinary artist working across film, spatial environments, and digital systems.
His practice focuses on the construction of perception. Through controlled visual and spatial languages, he creates multi-dimensional environments where psychological and emotional states are staged, observed, and destabilized, balancing clarity with tension and subtle shifts in reality.
With a background spanning fine arts, CGI, and creative direction, his work is informed by both material and digital processes. This duality allows him to move fluidly between film, installation, and constructed environments, approaching each project as a system rather than a single output.
His personal work and collabrations has been presented by Schinkel Pavillon, Julia Stoschek Foundation, Frieze London, and Paris Photo, and featured in Dazed, Vogue, and Nowness. He has collaborated with Staatsballett Berlin, Shayne Oliver Group, Rimowa, Dilara Fındıkoğlu, and Berlin Atonal, among many others.
Across formats, he builds contained worlds with a distinct internal logic, where image, architecture, sound, and performance operate as one.

A small and mobile crew will allow the film to move between carefully composed frames, long observational takes, car-mounted sequences, handheld material and aerial perspectives without losing intimacy or spontaneity.
Initial location research and visual tests have already been carried out along parts of the route in Türkiye, including handheld, observational and landscape footage that is informing the continued development of the film.
The selected locations have already been mapped into a geographical route that can be travelled from the beginning of the journey toward its final destination. At the same time, the route naturally divides into regional production blocks, allowing different sections of the film to be prepared and shot independently while preserving the feeling of continuous movement.
Many encounters can be built around real locations and limited intervention, combining performers, local participants and occasional recognised actors.
The film is conceived as an internationally oriented auteur feature within the European co-production and festival ecosystem, while maintaining a production model small enough to preserve the immediacy of the journey.
As X gradually loses control, the filmmaking should remain open enough to encounter what cannot be completely planned.
