It must have been nice to have been the first film makers in European Turkey. The Manaki brothers, being the first to ever make films in Macedonia and Albania, could film just about anything and be sure it was original, and would play t least locally, even if, like here, it's just their grandmother at her spinning wheel for ten seconds.
