Many individuals and ventures in Kurdistan graciously opened their hearts and doors, not seeking anything in return but believing in our vision to use cinema as a medium to share a story that resonated deeply with them.

We have already accomplished the most difficult part of the project by completing production in Amed (Diyarbakir) in 2022 and overcoming the restrictions on Kurdish cinema imposed by the Turkish government.
