Shot in 1977, this documentary offers an unconventional narrative of Istanbul by exploring its water culture, architecture, natural resources, and literary heritage. It is one of a series of 12 documentaries produced by Süha Arın between 1975 and 1977, which collectively reflect the Anatolian culture and traditional values of the period. The project was realized with the support of the Turkish Touring and Automobile Association and was later restored and digitized with the support of the General Directorate of Cinema of the Ministry of Culture and Tourism, ensuring its preservation for contemporary audiences.
