In episode 3, the journey goes to the almost forgotten region of Eastern Anatolia, which borders Armenia, Iran, Iraq and Syria. Accordingly, different cultures and religions mix here. The landscape is characterized by magnificent mountain ranges and endless steppes. Most people here live very simply, with sheep and goats adapted to the barren conditions and dry climate. The predominantly Kurdish society is still traditionally organized, with clear roles for women and men.

The journey ends with homemade liqueurs in Samandağ, where Christians, Jews, Alewites and Sunnis still live in peaceful harmony - just a few kilometers from the Syrian border.

The 1st episode of the ARTE series "Adventure Turkey" shows the Mediterranean region: blossoming orchards, olive groves and "still" untouched nature frame historical treasures. In this environment, tradition and modernity engage in a daily confrontation. Is it better to preserve old craft traditions? Can they be brought into the modern age? Sabine Howe meets women who are swimming free, men who are clinging on - but above all people who are trying anew every day to resolve this question for themselves.
