OFFICIAL SELECTION: GEOSCIENCE PROFESSIONALS
Theme: Future Earth
Directed by Ozan Turgut
Country of Origin: Turkey
The movie Deep Rumbling aims to shed light on where our society, whose awareness has increased especially after the 99 Marmara Earthquake, has come in the last 23 years. The movie takes its name “Deep Rumbling”, firstly from the description of every earthquake survivor, without exception, as “first I heard a deep rumbling, then the ground started to shake”, and then from the rumbling created by the confusion caused by many conscious and unconscious explanations, comments and discussions in the society. How can today's people cope with such a natural event that threatens their life safety, while meeting their need for shelter, in addition to the dilemmas they face in the face of urbanization culture and economic conditions? What have we experienced, what have we done, what should we do? While looking for answers to these questions, Deep Rumbling tries to enable us to confront this problem by offering solutions to all stakeholders of the earthquake, especially geoscientists, civil engineers, urban planners and social scientists, away from all kinds of "rumbling".
