Two Among Millions focuses on the love story of a young couple from East Berlin who plan on purchasing a bar in West Berlin and continuing their lives over there. Shot just a couple of months before the Berlin Wall was erected, the film strives to capture Berlin’s unique urban atmosphere with its realistic rendering and to connect this to the challenges that the main protagonists face in their private and professional lives.

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

The Ottoman Way of Serving Coffee

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.
