Exodus

The film is set after the attempted coup of 2016 in Turkey. The paths of three people cross. One is a university lecturer. One is a serving police officer. One is a Kurdish artist. All three are accused of terrorism. The prospect of detention stands close to them. They have to leave their homes and the people they love. They decide to get out of the country. They can find no legal way. They join a group being smuggled across borders. There are people from other countries in that group. Each of them is running from something of their own. What they share is the hope of reaching safety. The film tells that journey. Denis Ostier and Umit Ulgen appear in the one hundred four minute film, a British production Serkan Nihat finished in 2025.
