The impressive film, which depicts how people react in times of crisis and how they can show solidarity in the face of difficulties, takes place in a famous opera house in Vienna. In the middle of the night, the building is suddenly shaken by a fire outbreak, causing some people to panic and flee while others are trapped inside. A wealthy businessman, a young opera singer, a chef, and opera-goers are forced to fight together amidst the fire. However, this disaster becomes more than just a physical threat; it evolves into an adventure that reveals the characters' internal conflicts.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
Inspired by the exhibition And Now the Good News, which focusing on the relationship between mass media and art, we prepared horoscope readings based on the chapters of the exhibition. Using the popular astrological language inspired by the effects of the movements of celestial bodies on people, these readings with references to the works in the exhibition make fictional future predictions inspired by the horoscope columns that we read in the newspapers with the desire to receive good news about our day.
