Death without Mercy plot

February 6, 2023, 04:17 AM. A magnitude 7.8 earthquake leaves much of southern Turkey and northeastern Syria in ruins. In a matter of minutes, thousands of buildings collapse, including supposedly safe new housing developments that prove unable to withstand the devastating force. Many of these buildings were advertised as 'earthquake-proof' but did not meet building regulations. Corruption and poor oversight played a major role in this.

On February 6, 2023, a large part of Turkey and Syria was hit by an earthquake measuring 7.8 on the Richter scale, with the Turkish city of Antakya as its epicenter. Anyone who followed the news at the time will remember the enormous devastation, the tens of thousands and the stream of wailing relatives. Al-Kateab films two families in the days immediately following the earthquake, when emergency aid is painfully slow to get going. So expect a lot of whining, images that have been shown in all the news and (justified) accusations against the Turkish government, which deliberately allowed citizens to live in buildings that do not meet safety requirements and (as it turns out) are not resistant to earthquakes. Nothing new under the sun, but possibly of historical value in the long run.
