The famous director Lars Von Trier describes the relationship between his films and the audience as in the title: \u201cYou don't watch my movies by leaning back in your seats, but by feeling uncomfortable as if you have a pebble in your shoe\u201d.<\/p>\n
In his works, the director includes a confrontational examination of political, social and existential issues.<\/p>\n
The director, who has won more than 100 awards at festivals around the world, has had the chance to exist with Europe's policies that do not lock the door of the individual to the intellectual world and do not censor the ability to produce with \u2018intellectual discomfort\u2019.<\/p>\n
When we look back at our own history, our own story, we see how severely writers, directors, filmmakers, poets, poets and artists have been punished by the political powers against what they produce with \u201cIntellectual Discomfort\u201d.<\/p>\n
The story of the pain inflicted on people who raise their voices against the suffering in social life, the destruction in the individual's world, injustice, injustice and marginalization, and who express their voices with \u201cintellectual decency\u201d, is the kind that can be the subject of works of art in which they express injustice and drama.<\/p>\n

\nSivas Mad\u0131mak Hotel Massacre
\nwhen all hell breaks loose,
\nThree great poets,
\nMetin Alt\u0131ok
\nBeh\u00e7et Aysan
\nUgur Kaynar
\nWhile waiting on the steps of the hotel in the darkness outside spewing unconscious hatred, U\u011fur Kaynar asks the following question;
\n\u201cWhat do we do if things get bigger and something happens to one of us?\u201d<\/p>\n
Metin Alt\u0131ok gives the answer that still burns us all these years
\n\u201dthose who stay write poetry for those who die\u201d...<\/p>\n
We wish it was not a situation where those who remain lament the dead, write poems, books and make movies in their memory!<\/p>\n
It didn't happen, they didn't make it happen... Political powers have been so disturbed by the \u201cdiscomfort of intellectuals\u201d with what they see, feel and produce that they have gone after them with such fury that they have murdered intellectuals such as U\u011fur Mumcu, Ahmet Taner K\u0131\u015flal\u0131, Bahriye \u00dc\u00e7ok, Abdi \u0130pek\u00e7i, Necip Hablemito\u011flu and Sabahattin Ali, With the departure of poets like Naz\u0131m Hikmet and Ahmet Arif, who spent their lives in exile and prison, poets, writers and artists who were burned to death in the Mad\u0131mak Massacre, director Y\u0131lmaz G\u00fcney, who died in exile, and musicians like Ahmet Kaya, who succumbed to his heart with homesickness, the doors of an enlightened intellectual world have unfortunately closed on us...<\/p>\n
Today, we have been forced to be exposed to the authors of an intellectual misery who do not even have a sufficient command of our mother tongue, whose pen is for rent, whose livelihood is provided by the ideology they lean on, who call themselves intellectuals!<\/p>\n
Today, while imperialism and Zionism are trying to occupy the Iranian Geography, the Ancient Country, Iran, with its music, poetry and cinema, is challenging a shallow intellectual world, the expensive, hollow, empty world of Hollywood, far from real human stories!<\/p>\n
The authoritarian and repressive approach of the political power in Iran has of course created difficult times for intellectuals and artists, but intellectuals and artists, nourished by their national culture and the roots of ancient Iran, have managed to tell the world that \u2019Iran and we as Iranians\u2018 exist.<\/p>\n
The only thing that will protect us from both the global gang's immoral wars and imperialism's invasion of our culture is to feed on Anatolia's thousands of years of history and our roots,
\nNot to be afraid of the intellectual discomfort and opposition of our intellectuals from the different colors, thoughts and intellectual discomfort of the \u201cGarden of a Thousand Flowers ANATOLIA\u201d as Ya\u015far Kemal described it!<\/p>\n
I would like to end my article by commemorating the great poet of Iran in solidarity with the struggle of the Iranian people against the global gang,
