Recently, Kenan Imirzalioğlu made remarks to journalists about fatherhood and possible future projects. 

“Alef”, Kenan Imirzalioğlu’s 8-part series which aired on the digital platform BluTV, continues to gain international attention. Its title design and sequence has been selected as one of 15 that represent the very best and most original selections for the "Excellence in Title Design" award at the SXSW Film Festival to be held March 16-20, 2021 in Austin, Texas, USA. This award is inspired by an essential part of the theatrical experience and title design is considered a work of art in its own right. Congratulations on the selection and we hope to learn later in March 2021 that “Alef” is the winner in this category.
