This paper is a contact area about the sets of meaning which we call belonging, which turns itself on the axis of differing descriptions in every field of daily life. It is an effort to put writing individuals’ perspectives of readiness for sacrifice for safe zones specific to those sets of belonging. In other words, their perspectives of how they marginalize the unsafe zones. Efforts are made in this study to make sense of the methods of discovering how the areas, which are referred to as borders of community, are protected by using the data provided by visual anthropology. Having contact with those mysterious borders, which are sacred, meets great resistance. The data provided by visual anthropology in relation to the resistance minimise the contact. The research object of this study is the documentary “Hala” (Aunt) directed by Veysel Akşahin. It was chosen as the object of study due to the fact that it was away from fictionality. The documentary which was considered specifically as “Aunt Ihsan”, was divided into parts and analyzed thus, and then efforts were made to describe how the label “Aunt”, the image which develop performatively through İhsan Çolak, was assigned meaning.
