Macedonians in Istanbul

Overview

The film "Macedonians in Istanbul" is a film about the citizens of Istanbul, who are the fifth generation born in this city. As foreign workers, their ancestors from Macedonia moved to Istanbul in the 19th or early 20th century. Orthodox by religion, they celebrate their holidays in several sacred buildings that are still used in this city for that purpose. The members of this colony, mainly from the Aegean part of Macedonia, belong to a small community of rare, real, long-term citizens of the former metropolis of the Ottoman Empire, the great city of Istanbul.
