Documentary film screening: Antoine the Fortunate (WWI in the Ottoman Empire)

"Antoine the Fortunate” is a feature length documentary film coinciding with the WWI Centenary. It is based on a soldier’s eyewitness account of life in the Austro-Hungarian Army while stationed in Istanbul and Palestine during WWI.

The soldier, Antoine Köpe, left behind a memoir and a remarkable collection of letters, photographs, drawings, sound recordings and home movies that have never before been published. Given that his brother Taib was the Palace photographer, the memoirs contain hundreds of never before seen photographs.
