TÜRKİYE'NİN İLK RENKLİ FİLMİ ! "1939 - KEŞFEDİLDİ!"

The year is 1939... As the world teetered on the brink of war, American explorers Lawrence and Margaret Thaw embarked on a historic 22,000-mile journey from Paris to Bombay in their enormous, luxurious caravan, which they called the "Black Yacht." In this video, you'll witness the most crucial part of this legendary journey: the Turkish leg, presented in the first comprehensive color documentary footage ever recorded on Turkish soil by a professional crew! These unique archival images, filmed for National Geographic using Kodachrome film, showcase the historic streets of Istanbul, the modernizing face of Ankara, the enormous caravan boarding a car ferry on the Bosphorus, and the natural life of Anatolian villagers in their most vibrant colors. Join us on this unique journey through time, stretching back over 80 years!
