Film Season “BE Longing”
In the early 1960s, the so-called guest workers from Anatolia and other parts of Turkey were recruited by the Federal Republic of Germany. From the beginning, there was something that always accompanied them and was part of their culture: their music – a piece of home in a foreign land. Over the years, independent musical directions developed in Germany that did not exist in this form in their mother country.
Cem Kaya's rousing documentary celebrates 60 years of musical culture of migrants of Turkish origin in Germany.
