EMEL ANNE

Ali İsmail Korkmaz was 19 years old when he was attacked and abused by a right-wing nationalist mob on the fringes of a demonstration during the Gezi protests in Eskişehir. His injuries were so severe that he died a few weeks later, on July 10th, 2013. His family established the Ali İsmail Korkmaz Foundation, which facilitates educational projects for young people in many ways. His mother Emel and his brother Gürkan are coming to Berlin to talk to Deniz Yücel about their experiences and perspectives. Over the course of the event, we will show the documentary film Emel Anne by Kazım Kızıl.
