This is the third installment in
Adrian Tofei and
Duru Yücel's spiritual trilogy which includes
Be My Cat: A Film for Anne (2015) and
We Put the World to Sleep (2025). All three movies are radically different from each other, yet together they form a cohesive universe. The trilogy is symmetric in 3 essential ways. Symmetry no. 1: Be My Cat anchored in the lower self (irrational instincts and impulses, the subconscious), We Put the World to Sleep anchored in the middle self (the conscious rational mind), and Pure anchored in the higher self (mysteries beyond reason, the supraconscious). Symmetry no. 2: Be My Cat 50% scripted and 50% improvised, We Put the World to Sleep 25% scripted and 75% improvised, and Pure 75% scripted and 25% improvised. Symmetry no. 3: Be My Cat with Adrian Tofei starring in the lead role, We Put the World to Sleep with both Adrian Tofei and & Duru Yücel starring in the two lead roles, and Pure with Duru Yücel starring in the lead role (in other words, the trilogy begins with Adrian and ends with Duru, whose name in Turkish means "pure").
