Özet:

As Turkish Cinema is formed inherently by the Turkish society, it is assumed that cinema itself is a transforming medium for the society. Turkish cinema has not ignored the problems of women and sometimes it even displayed courage for engaging women issues. Atıf Yılmaz emerges as a director who dealt relatively frequently women issues in the Turkish society. This study focuses on the notions of public space, private space and intermediary space from a social perspective on women, on the basis of the 1982 film “Mine” of director Atıf Yılmaz. The study suggests that in the film, the notion of intermediary space presents an entrance, an opening into an alternative life for frustrated women and is represented in the film with the window. In many incident in the film where the protagonist – a married childless woman- responds to marriage frustrations by going out to the window and looks out for a new life. Thus, this study focuses on the notion of intermediary space placed on transformative stations of her life.
