"We want to show the beauty, but also the fragility of this remote strip of land", says Renan Ozturk. "But to cut through the noise and create an impact in public awareness, we can't just go on a boat and take beautiful pictures and hope a few media would cover it. So we put together a group of filmmakers, photographers and environmentalists, to make a meaningful representation of this place with wide reach. And we will produce a documentary about it all, including first ascent climbing and true boots on the ground exploration, as that is the kind of content that really creates awareness these days."

Renan lives to tell stories about our connection to the natural world, often set within the most challenging environments on Earth. He's constantly searching for projects that move him -- films that have a strong visual identity matched with some deeply compelling human element.
