Faultlines is an exposé of the aftermath of the earthquake that hit Turkey at a magnitude of 7.4 on the Richter scale, killing 40,000 people. It is a personal chronicle in that the director, Eylem Kaftan goes back to her hometown -- the quake's epicenter -- to find it in shambles. The film adds a political dimension to disasters by showing that the effects of the earthquake weren't solely linked to a "sudden release of energy in the Earth's crust."
