Sardunya and İlayda Elif Elhih

The director of the film, Çağıl Bocut, attended classes of the conservatory in the search for the character Defne, where he made observations and met İlayda Elhih. Afterwards, İlayda gave an audition at Bocut's request and was included in the Sardunya movie in 2016 with the character of Defne.[2]

Elhih did not have a driver's license before the Sardunya film and she got a driver's license for the film.[2]

Elhih contributed to the script of Sardunya. Cagil Bocut mentioned that father-son and father-daughter dynamics are different from each other and that for Defne, the protagonist of the movie who is close in age to Ilayda, he consulted Ilayda a lot.[5]
