For this episode we are exploring the wild world of Turkish exploitation cinema with the help of Dr Iain Robert Smith. If, like Laura, you have ever struggled to get through The Man Who Saved the World (Dünyayi Kurtaran Adam, 1982, Çetin Inanç), perhaps this deep dive will help encourage you to have another go!
You can find the film in full, with English subtitles, on YouTube
Ed Glaser's really great short documentary can also be found on YouTube
This article on The Guardian is also pretty helpful: "Attack of the killer Jedi! The bizarre story of Turkish Star Wars"
Here's a great review from Michael Brooke, who saw the restored version on its UK tour
