The Aftershock in Turkey | VPRO Documentary
Bram Vermeulen travels to southern Turkey to investigate the aftershock of the earthquake in early February. What are the long-term effects of the quake on residents, cities and Turkish politics now that the dust has settled?
The Turkish government is clearing debris at a furious pace to put the disaster behind it as soon as possible. Elections are just around the corner. Construction companies are experiencing golden times.
For residents, it's all moving too fast. 'Frontline' follows Turkish-Dutch writer Meltem Halaceli who has traveled to the area from Hengelo, The Netherlands. Her family has become homeless and she hopes to help them find housing.
House prices have doubled, real estate agents are earning from the huge influx of house seekers, but no one believes their sales pitches anymore.
The earthquake has triggered a veritable movement of people. Turkish earthquake victims, as well as the four million refugees from the Syrian civil war who were sheltered in Turkey, are all seeking new homes.
The earthquake caused a rift in Turkey's 12 years of hospitality to their neighbors. At the same time, there are grave concerns about what is now happening to the ancient city of Antakya. The city was home not only to Meltem's parents and grandparents but also to Jews, Christians, Alevis and Arabs.
The devastated south of Turkey after the earthquake is a landscape of lies, where distrust reigns.
