    Overcoming (2023) Film PosterThis poster was created for the film 'Overcoming' (2023), which focuses on the 20th anniversary of the opening of crossing points in Cyprus. Overcoming tells the inspiring story of Cypriot women, LGBTQ+ Cypriots, and antimilitarist cismen challenging militarism and gender norms. Directed by Besire Paralik and Firuzan Nalbantoğlu.
