Description
Summary:This TV film consists of 6 episodes 26 minutes each. The family story starts with a young couple of Tatar intellectuals, working in Kharbin and getting married in the 1920s. Shortly afterwards they both are accused of espionage, separated from their child and sent to different labor camps. The boy was later adopted by a Turkish family and grew up in Turkey. The woman gave birth to a daughter in the camp, who grew up in the orphanage. Only many years the girl could meet her parents, after their camp sentence was replaced by exile in Siberia. The filmmakers travel to the sights where the members of the family lived and conduct interviews with the family as well as with family friends and neighbors.
