Trivia
This programs's writer-director, Kuranda Seyit, said: "In this journey we re-discover a significant and fascinating part of our nation's history, one that is rarely told. We meet living descendants who tell their stories, complemented by archival photographs and footage. This film is a tribute and a testament to the great contribution and sacrifice that the camel drivers gave to this country and a valuable lesson in human frailty and emotion. "
