Cinema in Turkey: A New Critical History
Arslan, Savas (Associate Professor of Film and Television, Associate Professor of Film and Television, Bahcesehir University)
With over six thousand films, Turkey has produced more films than any other country in the Middle East or the Balkans. Despite its prolific and popular nature, this national film industry has often been denigrated as imitative, simplistic, and underdeveloped. Taking up precisely these critiques, Cinema in Turkey provides a critical history of feature cinema in Turkey, considering how this cinema developed modes of communication reflective of both existing traditionsand region-specific responses to modernization and nation-building.
