Feeding the River: 20 Years of Anadolu Kültür

  • December 18, 2024 / 19:00

Director: Mert Kaya
Turkey, 2024, 66', DCP, color
Turkish, English with Turkish, English subtitles

Could a table set amid archival records that have been piling up since 2002 serve as a space for memory exchange, a place where the archive and experiences meet? Those who have worked for Anadolu Kültür, an organization which brings culture, arts, and civil society together in many cities around Turkey, tell us what it has achieved in 20 years. Feeding the River is an attempt to contemplate on how Turkey’s distressing issues can be addressed through arts and to rethink the significance of “keeping up against all odds” within the country’s social and political context from an “insider” perspective.
