Wind from the East (or 2021) is a film about the movement at Bogazici University, considered by many to be the best university in the country, and its relation to the growing tyranny in Turkey. Highlighting the plight of women and LGBTQ citizens who are experiencing not only the rapid loss of their freedoms but what amounts to a fatwa when and if they dare to speak out against their government, the documentary aims to share the stories of Turkish citizens operating on the front lines in the battle for human rights, while expressing the need for art as a first line of defense against the totalitarianism that is quickly creeping westward.
