Our Story
​
Since August 2, 2017, Syrian filmmaker Amr and scenographer Rawan have run Gate of Sun, a social enterprise that serves as a film production house and an open space for cultural exchange in Gaziantep, Turkey, where the company is registered as an LTD Company with the registration number 51457. Since then, it has aimed to improve social cohesion among host and guest communities by producing audio-visual art with artists and filmmakers by providing Co-working spaces, equipment, and experts to help them achieve their goals and express themselves creatively.

Team and Projects
With the assistance of many valuable donors such as Habitat, UNHCR, Goethe, GIZ, Baytna, and Qudra program, the founders and professional team with diverse academic backgrounds and more than 12 years of experience in various fields such as film and theatre production, culture consultancy, and artists' business administration collaborated to implement creative, artistic, and cultural projects. In addition to its recent collaboration with The Arabic Theatre in Sweden, the company has been representing the Spaces of Culture project since 2018. Currently, during the COVID19 crisis, Gate of Sun is developing its Multilingual platform, which will include the VSS virtual studio system project, to assist artists, filmmakers, and others in working online and sharing a virtual space with one another.

Vision
We are seeking to build artistic communities all over the world who can express themselves and tell stories in creative ways.

Mission
By providing information, equipment, workspace, experts, and training, we can help all people, especially youth and women, who are interested in the creative media industry. Then, by sharing their ideas with communities, they will be able to achieve their goals and change the culture.

It is a long established fact that a reader will be distracted by the readable content of a page when looking at its layout. The point of using Lorem Ipsum is that it has a more-or-less normal distribution of letters, as opposed to using 'Content here, content here', making it look like readable English. Many desktop publishing packages and web page editors now use Lorem Ipsum as their default model text, and a search for 'lorem ipsum' will uncover many web sites still in their infancy. Various versions have evolved over the years, sometimes by accident, sometimes on purpose (injected humour and the like).
