Slow Death (2025)
Directed by İlkay Nişancı
Documentary · 1h 25m
The Elbistan Plain is Turkey's most fertile agricultural land and also home to the country's largest lignite deposit. Currently, two thermal power plants are crippling the entire ecosystem in the plain, and plans are underway to add six more. Turkey ranks eighth in the world for sulfur dioxide concentration, and Elbistan ranks fifth globally in this toxic race. While witnessing the narrative of how the shared dream of development is slowly turning into unshared disasters in the documentary, we see that even at the most toxic moment, life and hope are ready to sprout with care.
