30 Years with Kardeş Türküler” is a feature-length project that tells the musical and political journey of the Kardeş Türküler Project, which started within the Boğaziçi University Folklore Club in 1993. The film vividly depicts a story of coexistence - in a way a chronicle of “togetherness”, children, women, trees, rivers, a fraternity of cultures and languages that cannot be divided by borders. Not only languages, but history, culture, poetry, writers and artists meet on the stage: Hrant Dink, Neşet Ertaş, Reem Kelani, Sezen Aksu, Arto Tunçboyacıyan, Sayat Nova choir, the list goes on... So this movie brings forward for the first time the 30-year old story of Kardeş Türküler as they navigate and reflect with their music the political and social realities of the recent history of Turkey.
