A Gift from God (2019)
This documentary investigates the truth behind the bloodiest coup attempt in Turkey's political history. After the July 15th 2016 coup attempt failed, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan unleashed an unprecedented wave of repression against his opponents. Tens of thousands of teachers, judges, journalists, health workers and military personnel were fired and thousands were sentenced to long-term or life imprisonment. This documentary reveals never-before-seen documents and film footage. Through the voices of the people who witnessed it, the film sheds a light on what really happened that night.

    Murat Tekin & Ragip Enes Katran
