This documentary investigates the truth behind the bloodiest coup attempt in Turkey's political history. After a coup attempt failed in July 2016, President Recep Tayyip Erdogan unleashed an unprecedented wave of repression against his opponents. Tens of thousands of teachers, judges, journalists, health workers and military personnel were fired and thousands were sentenced to long-term or life imprisonment. This documentary reveals never-before-seen documents and film footage. Through the voices of the people who witnessed it, the film sheds a light on what really happened that night. *Click the "Play Trailer Button" to see an Intro to the film by Co-Director Jørgen Lorentzen, or click <a href="https://www.sebastopolfilmfestival.org/a-gift-from-god-itnro/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">here</a> to view on the SDFF site. find + follow film l&nbsp;<a href="https://integralfilm.com/project/a-gift-from-god/" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">website</a>&nbsp;l&nbsp;<a href="https://www.facebook.com/A-Gift-from-God-106462167570867" rel="noopener noreferrer" target="_blank">facebook</a>

A Gift From God

A Gift From God investigates the truth behind the bloodiest coup attempt in Turkey's political history.

An older couple leave Tehran and return to their idyllic home town on the Turkish border, but their dreams of quiet retirement are shattered by the realization that their town has become a smuggling gateway into Europe, and everyone they know is involved. As haunting as it is heartbreaking, A Horse Has More Blood Than A Human tells a tale that feels universal despite the specificity of its subjects.
