La Turquie d'Orhan Pamuk, Sema Kaygusuz et Elif Shafak
Rooted in their society, history, and culture yet totally at odds with the predominant view of the country and identity, Orhan Pamuk, the Nobel Prizewinner in Literature, Sema Kaygusuz, an emerging voice on the Turkish literary scene, and Elif Shafak, the most widely read author from Turkey, tell us candidly, lucidly, and each in their own way what it means to be from Turkey today. With them, and through their exacting writing and captivating stories, this film sounds the depths of history’s legacy and the schisms marking Turkey today.
