SUMMARY:Film: Turkey on the Edge 2018 (53 min.) Turkey
DESCRIPTION:Directed by Imre Azem\, 2018 (53 min.) Turkey. \nFour following years the Gezi Resistance\, great political and social changes were instituted in Turkey. Director İmre Azem follows four people striving for democracy\, from Gezi to a July 15th attempted coup\, a subsequent state of emergency\, and finally an april 16th\, 2017 referendum. The rise of Turkey’s dictator Recep Erdogan and his attack on academics and the people of Turkey is the focus of this documentary. The documentary shows the rise and struggle of the Gezi Resistance\, which was a fight against privatization of a park in Istanbul. Erdogan wanted to pave it over with a private development for his cronies. The use of fundamentalism and racism against Kurds and other minorities has a long history in Turkey. Azem links the struggle in Gezi to the July 15th coup attempt and a state of emergency to crush any political opposition while expanding the war in Syria. He also shows the April 16th\, 2017 referendum by focusing on the people who are fighting for democracy and equality for all. Following the films there will be a discussion hosted by the Solidarity Committee with the People of Turkey. \n \nTurkey on the Edge – (Trailer) from Kibrit Film on Vimeo.
