Steam: The Turkish Bath

Francesco and Marta, a creative couple based in Rome, run a thriving design company together. When Francesco receives news of his aunt's passing in Istanbul, he embarks on a journey to settle her affairs. Among the possessions left behind is a traditional hamam Turkish steam bath, which takes him deeper into his family history than ever before.Upon arriving in Istanbul, Francesco experiences a profound sense of love and warmth from his extended family that he's been lacking in Rome. The city itself seems to breathe with a rich cultural heritage and familial ties that remind him of the values he holds dear. As he navigates through the labyrinthine streets of the ancient city, Francesco begins to understand the importance of preserving his family legacy, and the profound impact it could have on their design company and their lives in Rome.This poignant tale of personal growth and cultural discovery is woven seamlessly with the backdrop of two great cities - Rome, with its eternal charm, and Istanbul, with its vibrant history. It explores themes of family bonds, tradition, and the rediscovery of one's roots, all while highlighting the power of design to unite people across borders and generations.
