Foka
2026·40m·★ 0.0
Dr. Dimitri Foka, a Greek doctor from Turkey, survives a Nazi execution in Greece during World War II thanks to his Turkish passport. After graduating, he returns to his hometown, the island of Imroz (Gökçeada), part of Turkey, and becomes the island’s only doctor for many years. Following the Cyprus problem in 1964, state policies targeting the Greek population lead to dispossession, violence, and forced migration on the island, yet Foka refuses to leave.
