My Name is Happy - Feature Documentary

Stardom beckoned Mutlu Kaya when she reached the finals of Turkey’s Got Talent. ​Days later she was shot by a man trying to abduct her. Against the odds, Mutlu survived, but with life-changing injuries and a bullet in her brain. This is her inspirational story. #trailer #IDFA2022

Tomorow's @BerthaDocHouse screening will be followed by a Q&A with co-directors Nick Read & Ayse Toprak, hosted by Mariayah Khaderbhai, Head of Programmes at BAFTA. We'd love to see you there! 🎟 - buff.ly/43WQZfG

Having had to postpone our UK launch in February after the devastating earthquakes in Turkey, we're now absurdly proud to share details of the limited release of 'My Name is Happy' this week. Described by one reviewer as 'an urgent film, raising a voice which needs to be heard'.

Mutlu Kaya is a strong and bright young Kurdish singer and activist who fights against #feminicides in #Turkey. A survivor herself, she spoke to @momarthaler from @sonntagszeitung. @nameishappydoc relates her story, currently at @FIFDH tagesanzeiger.ch/die-kugel-stec…
