The Mine (1978 film)

Maden (English: The Mine) is a 1978 Turkish film starring Cüneyt Arkın, Tarık Akan and Hale Soygazi, and directed by Yavuz Özkan. It is about a group of miners who decide to strike against a greedy mining company to demand better working conditions. The film is from the wave of political films in Turkey during the 1970s and actually represents one of the highest points of activism in the Turkish cinema as the Turkish left was in its peak point too.[1]

gollark: Probably, yes. I have a friend who likes programming language theory a lot but doesn't really expect to be able to get work in that (eventually).
gollark: The theoretical stuff isn't necessarily worse depending on what you want to do.
gollark: There are still more "industry-oriented" options for studying it and some which are less so.
