The Third Exile

Üçüncü Gurbet

Overview

The massacre that took place in the Yörük Selim neighborhood of Kahramanmaraş in 1978, known as the "Maraş Events," resulted in the loss of many lives and caused many more people to lose their homes and possessions and to migrate. It is clear that women and children were the most affected by the war and the events. Third Exile is a documentary film project that aims to document the traumas experienced by women who lived through the Maraş Events. It follows the traces of women who are still living in Maraş and those who have migrated from Maraş.
