The Water Diviner

The Water Diviner, a movie directed by famous actor and director Russell Crowe, is a true-based story about the journey of an Australian father who goes to Turkey after World War 1 to find his 3 sons that have disappeared in the Gallipoli battle. In the most reviews the film is identified as one of the most fair-minded movie that has ever been filmed.

Besides directing the movie, Crowe has also starred as the Australian farmer. In the movie, there are also famous Turkish actors starring such as Yilmaz Erdogan and Cem Yilmaz. Also, one of the most important aspect for this movie is that it is the first movie in the history that has scenes shot in the Blue Mosque which is the most well-known landmark in Istanbul.
