Women who try to be an ointment to the suffering of others while suffering, start from scratch, stand upright despite everything… “House of Mourning” prepared and presented by journalist Duygu Demirdağ is on the GAIN and GAIN News YouTube channel.

“The house of mourning is very heavy for the sufferer, but for the outsider they are alike. Everyone comes first; Those who come bring food, shed tears with you, and even stay with you for a while. Then gradually the crowd in the house begins to decrease. Finally one morning you wake up alone in that house. You are the memory of what you have lost and a great loneliness… In fact, it is the same person who greets those who come when the house of mourning is full, and who has to move on with life after everyone has left: the woman.”
