Her name is Vasfiye (Adı Vasfiye) (translated)
Adı Vasfiye (Her Name is Vasfiye) is a 1985 Turkish drama film directed by Atıf Yılmaz. Adapted from five short stories in Necati Cumalı's book "Ay Büyürken Uyuyamam," the film was scripted by Barış Pirhasan with music by Attila Özdemiroğlu. The 89-minute work is regarded as the director's first venture into socially themed fantastic cinema.
The film recounts the life of Vasfiye, a small-town woman whose years drift among different men in Aegean towns, through the conflicting accounts of the men who knew her. In each telling Vasfiye emerges as an entirely different woman, and the line between fact and fiction is deliberately left ambiguous. Star Müjde Ar won the Best Actress award at the 23rd Antalya Film Festival for this role, where the film itself was named Third Best Film.
