Guardians of Anatolia

Journey to a vanishing way of life

IMDbDocumentary

Follows a Sarıkeçili Yörük family on a long distance seasonal migration through the Taurus Mountains. Through an intimate, immersive lens, the film reveals a way of life shaped by movement, interdependence, and deep connection to land. As external pressures intensify, this ancient rhythm persists—fragile, embodied, and profoundly present.
