    A rare look into the world of insurgents of Eastern Turkey/Wester Kurdistan

    Shot during the peace talks between Turkey, the document offers a unique look on the militants operating in the Taurus mountains near to Disrbakir. Rather than giving a firm narrative, it gives the people who have decided to join the querilla an opportunity to tell their stories and why they have decided to make such a dramatic life choice. It humanizes people who in the mainstream Turkish media are labelled as terrorists. It raises questions on the necessity of the armed conflict. The document takes the audience on a tour to the Taurus mountains and to the training camps and caves of the querilla fighters, showing the unique and beautiful scenery of the region. Recommended to people interested in the conflict.

    • Trivia
      After the cancellation of Bakur and reactions of the filmmakers, dozens of Turkish film-makers have withdrawn their work from this year's Istanbul international film festival in protest over the removal of a documentary from the program, as a growing censorship row prompted organizers to cancel all festival competitions halfway through the event. Therefore, 34th Istanbul Film Festival was not be able to be completed that year and it was canceled.
