Society has many contrasts within it. Lived experiences, felt realities, contradictory situations and similar phenomena are carried in process and create history of society which connected with them. The history of society is in interaction with the individuals who make up that society. The influence of the past phenomenon is different in each individual, and this effect creates two opposite cultures that own opposite motivations: the culture of remembering and the culture of forgetting. The connection of cinema to the past is a matter that has been debated for many years. The past is reconstructed through cinema, and narrative of subjective history is generated via regeneration of realties. Contrary to the mainstream cinema in the construction of dominant discourse, the political cinema unrolls truelife, objective truths, and overturned history; not requested to be presented by adopting a critical approach. Özcan Alper who has taken on the mission of bringing experienced and hidden truths in the films which are directed by him, is accepted as one of the most important representatives of political cinema in Turkey. Özcan Alper’s cinema has become one of the two main axes of this study because of operation of political cinema's return to life, unidentified murders, capital task and topics like the Armenian people lived in 1915 be an example for associating social memory with cinema. In this context, Ozcan Alper's films; Fall (2008), Future Long Time (2011) and The Memories of the Winds (2015) were evaluated, and the effect of Özcan Alper's cinema on social memory was investigated by associating with social memory concept and cinema.
