The Diary of an Exile
Bir Sürgünün Not Defteri: Misina
2025
Synopsis
The film unfolds around the memories and daily life of revolutionary musician Fuat Saka, who had to leave Türkiye just before the military coup d’etat in 1980 because of his political views and a fascist attack against him on the eve of 1979.
Editorial
A quietly resonant study of a life shaped by rupture, this contemplative documentary drifts through memory and music to follow the stubborn pulse of a man unwilling to abandon his artistic compass. As Turkey’s political undercurrents surface, exile becomes the terrain where sound gathers resolve.
