Wild Women of Anatolia is a documentary that follows the daily lives of five women across regions, generations, and beliefs in Turkey. From a four-generation family harvesting nuts in the Black Sea region to Aslı, who runs a historical coffee business in the male-dominated area of Eminönü Istanbul, from Hira, who gave birth on her own in the Aegean Sea to Hatice, an Alevi-Kurdish woman who grew up in a mountainous village of Muş and Arya who fights for transgender rights in Ankara, we listen to five women’s stories of freedom, dreams and desire and witness their connections to their landscapes.
The crew will attend.
Coffee was served with much splendor at the harems of the Ottoman palace and mansions. First, sweets (usually jam) was served on silverware, followed by coffee serving. The coffee jug would be placed in a sitil (brazier), which had three chains on its sides for carrying, had cinders in the middle, and was made of tombac, silver or brass. The sitil had a satin or silk cover embroidered with silver thread, tinsel, sequin or even pearls and diamonds.
