Documentarist – Istanbul Documentary Days, Turkey’s largest documentary film festival, was held for the fourth time from May 31 to June 5, 2011. The festival has been garnering more attention internationally and widening the scope of its programme every year. The result of prodigious efforts undertaken by the founders as well as a large team of young people who are mainly university students, Documentarist is organized under the auspices of the Eurasia Art Collective (Ask) and is activist in its inclinations. This year’s festival was comprised of various sections focusing on such themes as environmentalism, music, anthropology and the post-communist era.
The World We Consume section of the festival included films with striking insights into some of the most important environmental issues of our times. “There Once Was an Island” (2010), directed by
Briar March, tells in a poignant manner the story of people of Takuu, a tiny low-lying atoll in the South Western Pacific.
