"The Turkish film industry
The Turkish film industry has had a long life, dating from 1914, when Fuat Uzkinay (who was later involved in the Army Cinema Department, created in 1917) made the documentary, The Destruction of the Russian Monument in Agia Stefanos. Films had first been screened in Turkey as early as 1897, and the first motion picture theatre was built in 1908."
