Dalyan sits between two worlds — ancient and alive. The river cuts through dense reeds and limestone cliffs carved with Lycian rock tombs. Across the water, the ruins of Kaunos rise among pine and oleander. Caretta caretta turtles nest on the beach beyond the delta.
This is a place where time moves slowly and attention deepens. The Mediterranean light, the sounds of water and wind through reeds, the proximity of history — all conspire to create an environment where stories can be honestly examined. It is why we chose Dalyan for a film development lab.
