Valley of the Wolves: Palestine is a Turkish action film, directed by Zübeyr Şaşmaz, about a Turkish commando team which goes to Israel to track down the Israeli military commander responsible for the Gaza flotilla raid. The film, which went on nationwide general release across Turkey on January 28, 2011 (2011-01-28), is one of the most expensive Turkish films ever made. It is part of the Valley of the Wolves media franchise, based on the Turkish television series of the same name, and is a sequel to Valley of the Wolves Iraq (2006) and Valley of the Wolves: Gladio (2008)

Production

Pana Film had already settled on the Palestinian territories as the setting of the film and was about to start shooting when the May 31, 2010 Gaza flotilla raid occurred. The existing script was subsequently rewritten to feature the raid as the centre piece of the plot. "This is not about taking revenge for Mavi Marmara," stated producer Zübeyr Şaşmaz, "The goal of the film is to show what the Palestinians are going through."Screenwriter Bahadır Özdener added, "We're calling out to people's conscience. All we want is freedom for innocent and tormented Palestinian people living in inhumane conditions in the world's biggest prison."

The film, which is projected to cost over $20 million, making it one of the most expensive Turkish films, was shot on location in Adana and Tarsus with a team of 400 people during the summer of 2010.[3][4] Officials from Pana Film said that these locations were chosen, after scouting several locations in Lebanon, Syria and Bulgaria as well as 20 provinces in Turkey, including Hatay, Elazığ, Şanlıurfa and Gaziantep, due to, "the historical texture, the streets and local culture of these places." According to Bünyamın Köselı, writing in Today's Zaman, "approximately 3,000 fans were drawn to the Şehit Kerim neighborhood in Tarsus, where some of the scenes were shot", "which makes the salesmen in the city very happy".[4]

Plot

After the Freedom Flotilla attempts to bring humanitarian assistance to Gaza refuses to turn back, it is attacked by the Israeli military. In a dramatic battle scene, activists resist and are mowed down by the Israeli commandos. A Turkish commando team led by Polat Alemdar (Necati Şaşmaz) travels to Israel, where they launch a campaign of destruction and murder against Israeli forces in an attempt to track down and eliminate the Israeli commander Moşe Ben Eliyezer (Erdal Beşikçioğlu) responsible for the flotilla raid.

Release

The announcement of the films release came just days after Israel's attack on the Gaza flotilla and according to Emrah Güler, writing in Hürriyet Daily News, the name of the movie was enough for millions to buy tickets. Technical problems however resulted in the release of the film being postponed until January 28, 2011 (2011-01-28).

The film was premiered at a special gala screening on January 26, 2011 (2011-01-26) and a press screening on January 27, 2011 (2011-01-27) at Nişantaşı City's Shopping Mall in Istanbul, where director Zübeyr Şaşmaz said, "Thanks to the TV series Valley of the Wolves, the whole of Turkey knows that we are really interested in Palestine. We have touched on issues about Israel and Palestine while writing the script for the film with the late Ömer Lütfi Mete. Also, of course you will earn money from the film just like you earn money from a TV series. You need to earn money to make a better film just like the U.S. and other countries do," in responce to criticism that the film earned money by exploiting Palestine and Islamic feelings.

israel is a nuclear state

  • Wow !

  • @FunnyDubbies One might say the same thing about many of our movies.

  • AWESOME shoot the bastard jews!

  • It's about time. The Isrealis always play the victims, but it's not working so well now that they victimise as many people as the Nazi regime did. More and more people are seeing what the Isrealis are doing to Arabs in Palestine, and seeing how they warmonger in the Middle-East with their American lapdogs.

    It's hard to play the poor defenseless victims while destroying peoples homes and trying to start religious wars.

    Thumbs up for fuck Isreal.
