Ruhi Çenet Documentaries

We are in an interesting village where people have been whistling to each other for centuries. The language of this village is “Kuşdili” (Language of the Birds).

Imagine that the building you live in is not just your home, but also the entire city. In this building, all the essential needs you can think of are gathered under one roof. People can get to the supermarket, the post office or even the registry office in the blink of an eye, just by taking the elevator. Despite the storm outside and the heavy snowfall, the children who live here go to school through the underground tunnel of your building. Located in southern Alaska, Whittier is a coastal city hidden between imposing mountains and the ocean.

If you had a special camera with a 3,000mm lens, what would you zoom in on? Here's what comes out of my perspective, I'd rather show than tell. In this video, I zoomed in on airplanes, distant cities, and another country. I even zoomed in from one continent to another (from Asia to Europe). I looked at Mars, Saturn, Jupiter, the Moon, and even the International Space Station. The camera I'm using is the Nikon P1000.

Ruhi Cenet is in Nauru, the least visited country in the world. Located in the middle of the vast waters of the Pacific Ocean and appearing just as a tiny dot on the map, it’s the smallest independent republic. Nauru is the most inaccessible country. Hardly 200 people make their way to this country each year. This is the least visited country in the world, even the closest countries are thousands of kilometers away from here. Until recently, the locals on this isolated island had so much wealth that they didn't even know what to do with it. Once rich in phosphate deposits in 1975, Nauru became the country with the highest GDP per capita in the World. Today, however, in these destroyed lands where no fruits and vegetables can grow, processed and fatty foods have become the norm. Nauru is recognized by the World Obesity Federation as the world's most obese country, with around 60% of its citizens are obese. The World Health Organisation also reports that Nauru has the highest cigarette

La Rinconada, the closest inhabited place to the sky on Earth, where people are living above the clouds. Life on the highest habitable altitude is tough. At this extreme altitude of 5,100 meters, the atmosphere significantly thins and the locals are living with only 50% of the usual oxygen levels. Their bodies have evolved to produce two times more blood cells than ours. On this barren land, not even a single tree can survive because of the low air pressure. This town in the Peruvian Andes is even 300 meters higher than Mont Blanc, the highest peak in the Alps of Europe. Far from the modern world, it is a place where crime and danger are always nearby. People come to these harsh lands for only one reason: gold. About 50,000 people have settled here, among piles of trash, all dreaming of wealth.
