Mantar Film was founded in 2010 by Engin Yenidünya, Tolga Karaçelik, Sara Merih Ertaş, Güneş Zahid and Cem Adıyaman. Working in finance in Japan, Engin has produced various feature films. Since completing her studies in the US and returning to Turkey, Merih has been engaged in numerous feature films in production and direction capacities. Cem has created many unique projects in New York and Beirut combining music and video. Gunes has spent years as a line producer in cinema and commercials. The team was assembled during the scriptwriting phase of Tolga's feature debut Toll Booth and turned their longlasting friendship into a harmonious, enjoyable, and efficient business partnership. Bringing together their diverse backgrounds, work experience and friendships under the Mantar Film umbrella, the quintet continue to work on their own film, commercial, and music video projects while assisting other directors in realizing their feature films. They are also bringing in international projects to Turkey.
