After completing his education in the United States, he returned to Turkiye and realized his first festival project, The Wasted Effort (Bir Liralık Emek), for which he wrote the screenplay and served as producer and director. The film was inspired by the Hadith: “He is not one of us who sleeps full while his neighbor is hungry. Do not waste food or water; help the poor and feed the hungry.”
With the slogan, “You may have paid a small price, but the labor spent is far greater. In every piece of food thrown away, there is the labor and the right of another person,” the film raised social awareness. It met audiences at many national and international film festivals, was nominated for numerous awards, and brought pride to Turkiye with the awards it won. This production marked the beginning of a long career dedicated to projects that benefit humanity.
