Turkish film on Syrians wins awards

“Purple Horizons” (Mor Ufuklar), a Turkish-made film telling the struggle of a Syrian girl fleeing civil war in her country, has returned home with awards from Pakistan and Italy.
The film won “Best Movie,” “Best Foreign Movie” and “Best Scenario” awards at Pakistan’s 8th International Lums Film Festival and will be released in theaters in Europe and Turkey simultaneously in April 2018.
The movie has won 15 international awards so far.
Osman Subaşı, the producer of the movie, told the film’s story to the state-run Anadolu Agency. “We want to inform the world through cinema, which is an important tool to convey refugees’ problems,” he said.

“Since the beginning of the Syrian crisis, especially in the last five years, so many boats have been sunk in the Mediterranean Sea; so many people have lost their lives,” he added.
