A Long Story

With the end of the “Peace Process” in 2015, I witnessed the conflict that broke out between the PKK and government forces in the Sur region of Diyarbakır. I was a freelance journalist at that time, witnessing this terrible event caused me a trauma. Years later, I turned these images in my archive into a documentary. I prepared this documentary by reflecting on the witness, migration and urban memory. It was very sad to take such bad footage with my camera. After these images, the Sur region was demolished, and absurd houses are now being built instead of demolished houses.

Night Will Fall

When Allied forces liberated the Nazi concentration camps in 1944-45, their terrible discoveries were recorded by army and newsreel cameramen, revealing for the first time the full horror of what had happened. Making use of British, Soviet and American footage, the Ministry of Information’s Sidney Bernstein (later founder of Granada Television) aimed to create a documentary that would provide lasting, undeniable evidence of the Nazis’ unspeakable crimes. He commissioned a wealth of British talent, including editor Stewart McAllister, writer and future cabinet minister Richard Crossman – and, as treatment advisor, his friend Alfred Hitchcock. Yet, despite initial support from the British and US Governments, the film was shelved, and only now, 70 years on, has it been restored and completed by Imperial War Museums under its original title "German Concentration Camps Factual Survey".
