Turkish actress , Ayşegül Coşkun, in her new film , «Motreb»
The introduction of cinema in Turkey dates back to nearly a year after two young Frenchmen, the Lumière brothers held their first film exhibition on December 22, 1895 in a cafe in Paris. Initial showings in Turkey were private ones held at the Sultan's court, the Yıldız Palace in İstanbul. Afterwards a Romanian citizen of Polish descent Sigmund Weinberg screened films publicly at a beer hall in Galatasaray Square, İstanbul, thus introducing this extraordinary art to many more Turkish people.
