In the new Netflix series The Museum of Innocence, adapted from the novel of the same name by Orhan Pamuk, the camera proposes a distanced gaze that moves closer to the characters’ states of mind rather than constructing a nostalgic period aesthetic.
The series treats space not as a backdrop but as a vessel of memory, obsession, and time; objects are not displayed, they accumulate as fragments of meaning.
We spoke with director Zeynep Günay and Orhan Pamuk about Netflix’s The Museum of Innocence, a timeless adaptation that feels as if it unfolds inside the book.
