Brief Synopsis
While challenging common beliefs on the history of civilization, the film takes the audience back to 12 thousand years ago, to an archeological site recently found in SanliUrfa, Turkiye. The construction date of the “World’s First Temple” is thousands of years earlier than the most important symbols of ancient wisdom; such as the Stonehenge monument in England, or the Egyptian Pyramids.

- What causes the Neolithic human to create such a monumental sacred complex?
- Does the existence of such an immense architectural structure show us that hunter-gatherer societies had been much more developed and well-organized?
- Could the monumental pillars and animal carvings be the mysterious symbols of a code waiting to be cracked for 12,000 years?
- Does it hold any connection with the forthcoming civilizations?
- Was there a civilization with higher consciousness and awareness in Gobeklitepe, and did they leave us their knowledge as a heritage?
The filmmaker’s intention is to show the facts and discoveries rather than answering to those questions, and to leave the interpretation to the open-minded audience’s imagination.
“12,000 years ago, there was a sacred place on Earth.”
