Synopsis
Documents a trip through Turkey in May/June, 2005, through Istanbul and Ankara to Gaziantep in the southeastern part of the country, and from there further eastwards via Diyarbakir and Van to Dogubayazit near the Iranian border. Describes moments during the journey that differ from the usual motifs that inform the image of present-day Turkey--from impressions of day-to-day life in such Western cities as Istanbul and Ankara all the way to regions in the country's easternmost territory that were locked in battle until recently.
