In an exciting collaboration with Italy’s national broadcaster RAI, we embarked on a fascinating journey across Turkey to produce ten unique documentaries. Our travels took us through five vibrant cities, each offering a distinctive insight into the country’s rich culture, history and current affairs.
Facilitating RAI’s news journey
The partnership was a testament to meticulous planning and seamless execution. We played a key role in facilitating RAI’s access to key news sources and ensuring that the journalists had all the information and contacts they needed. This groundwork was essential to capturing the authentic stories that unfolded before our cameras.
Arranging meetings and interviews
Before embarking on this news trip, we meticulously organised a series of appointments for the journalists. These meetings were crucial as they gave them direct access to key people and organisations. This preparation allowed the documentaries to delve deeply into the stories that mattered and to present a comprehensive view of the diverse issues and perspectives in Turkey.
Refugee documentary in Adana nominated for journalism awards
One of the standout pieces from this collaboration was our documentary on refugees in Adana. This poignant and timely film highlighted the lives and struggles of refugees in the region and brought their stories to an international audience. The documentary was not only well received, but also received significant recognition, being nominated for journalism awards in Italy. This award underlines the impact and quality of the work produced during our collaboration with RAI.

We look forward to more such collaborations, bringing untold stories to the forefront and continuing to bridge cultures through the art of documentary filmmaking.
