Ataturk: A 2 Part Series

From the ruins of the Ottoman Empire, at a time when almost all of the Islamic world was falling under the dominance of European imperial powers, Mustafa Kemal Ataturk managed not just to preserve but secure Turkeys independence. Against all odds, he founded the Republic of Turkey in 1923, creating a democratic, secular Turkish state through the institution of revolutionary political and social reforms that included the adoption of a western code of jurisprudence and the Latin alphabet, as well as the emancipation of women. The effects of his democratic reforms still resonate today in Turkey and the rest of the world. Through the use of interviews with military and scholarly experts, on-location filming in Turkey, and rare archival footage, this most comprehensive documentary on Ataturk gives insight into Ataturk as a military and political leader as well as revealing his psychology and motivations.Ê
