Time Worm is a creative documentary that weaves together documentary footage of silk farming with a collaborative performance by the children of Kulp, a town in Diyarbakir, Eastern Turkey. The silkworm’s delicate life begins and ends in human hands, just before it transforms into a moth, creating a continuous thread of silk from its cocoon.The film captures the process of silk farming—an ancient practice that intertwines beauty and destruction in equal measure. 

Set in a region scarred by war, Time Worm explores a history marked by trauma, navigating this pain through the concept of regeneration, symbolized by both the silkworms and the children.
