Its perceived anti-Americanism and anti-semitism generated interest among American and European media and other organizations, such as the Anti-Defamation League. It went on general release across Turkey on February 3, 2006 and was one of the highest grossing Turkish film of 2006.[1]
Valley of the Wolves: Terror[edit]

The first episode of the program aired on the night of February 8, 2007 and earned considerable ratings, but the political reflection of the painful issues of Turkey and the violence shown in the first episode triggered a harsh response from RTÜK (Radio and Television Supreme Council). As a result, the series was cancelled after its first episode, creating a controversy about censorship in Turkey.
Valley of the Wolves: Ambush[edit]
Valley of the Wolves: Ambush (Turkish: Kurtlar Vadisi: Pusu) is the current spin-off television series, which was launched by Pana Film some time after the cancellation of the previous series, and has been running on Show TV since April 20, 2007. It has not faced any responses from RTÜK yet and it attracts high ratings.
The new series deal with the relations between the state, mafia, business circles, and the deep state phenomenon in Turkey. According to the plot, Polat Alemdar decides to wage a vigilante struggle against four powerful Turkish families that control the national economy, helping Ahu Toros, a young businesswoman who lost her father in a conspiracy by the said families. Polat Alemdar's biggest rival is 'Alexander the Great' (Iskender Buyuk), who trails him at all times. Polat marries Ebru Duru and lives happily, but things take a turn for the worse in the ensuing episodes. The two other protagonists are Memati and Abdulhey. Memati is a former specialized Mafia (working for Suleyman Cakir at the time) but now Memati is converted into a good person with a brave heart and a patriot like Polat, he always follows Polat's orders. Abdullhey is like Polat, an agent working for Turkey intelligence and serving his country like a real patriot.The main antagonist arrives after the third season and is named Aron Feller, an ex agent of CIA and working in Turkey (or controlling Turkey in some ways). Iskender Büyük is considered like an anti-hero, instead of Aron Feller being the main antagonist. After a long fight-relation against Iskender Büyük, Polat finally manages to kill his main enemy Iskender Büyüük, but he loses his wife Ebru and his little daughter is taken by Aron Feller to be raised as a Christian in the USA. After the death of Iskender Büyük, Polat and his team are facing a new wage of enemies, they try to fight against Kurdish terrorism, by the same time a new character appears, his name is Ersoy Ulubey, Ersoy wants to take the deep state of Turkey by the 'force'. His methods are : terrorism and many relations with big familie leaders like Hasim aga, Izzet aga, Yasar aga etc. He creates a secret fraternity to take upon Turkey, but Polat and his team must now take him down. By the same time, Polat keeps his relations with the 'Ihtiyarlar', they give him new missions and Polat is chosen as the 'protector' of Turkey. After many episodes Polat kills Ersoy and the main antagonist Aron Feller, by this way almost destroying 'Gladio'. Through upcoming episodes Suleyman Cakir's family returns after 10 years and new character 'Kara' is being introduced, he was the 'old' Polat Alemdar before Polat Alemdar, he too worked for the 'Ihtiyarlar' and will bring big help to the team of Canpolat! As the series goes on, many new characters are making appearance such as : Beyefendi, Mete bey, Memduh Baba, Seref Zazaoglu, Mete Aymar etc. In the episode 161 Memati is killed by a mysterious group, the 'white elder' of the Ihtiyarlar is killed too by the same mysterious group. Polat and his friends are in shock after Memati's death, they are lost and they cannot take his revenge. The Ihtiyarlar must now choose a new 'white elder', so Adil Esrefoglu is chosen, Adil bey is the brother of Dogu Esrefoglu, Adil, Dogu and Aslan Akbey were the ones who created the secret mission : Kurtlar Vadisi. After this Polat will have to deal with Adil bey. Adil bey tells him everything about his past and he also tells him, that he used to be like Polat in his youth services. He says that he formed with his brother Dogu bey the created KGT (Turkey's intelligence agency), he also tells Polat that he was the one who 'formed' Aslan Akbey. A new youth team comes in Turkey to help Polat to finish his mission : Kurtlar Vadisi. Memati's death shocked too much everyone. After that, Polat said to one of his helpers to kill himself because he had some secrets and he meant that if he killed himself, it would be the best for the state.

'It addresses Turkey’s years-long adventure with the deep state and illegal formations nested within the state' and 'aims to provide an opportunity for movie fans to closely look at the 'deep gangs' that attempted to stir and divide Turkey with subversive plots,' according to Betül Akkaya Demirbaş in Today's Zaman. It went on general release across Turkey on November 20, 2009 and was the fifth highest grossing Turkish film of 2009.[3][4][5][6]

Cultural impact[edit]
Kurtlar Vadisi Filistin
'Kurtlar Vadisi became an instant hit with its references to Turkish politics, its unabashed abuse of social sensitivities on patriotism, and with unprecedented scenes of violence that included assassination and torture on television', Hürriyet Daily News reviewer Emrah Güler. 'Not unlike John Woo’s Face/Off an undercover Turkish agent goes through a set of plastic surgeries to infiltrate the mafia, along with a gunman who walks surefooted in this muddy underworld', Güler continues, 'the two go through ordeals of every kind for Polat to become the next baron so that he can break them apart.' 'The hype eventually got so big that the final episodes featured Andy Garcia as the big American mafia boss and Sharon Stone as his wife, eventually lending a kiss to our hero.'[6]
Lead character Polat Alemdar (Necati Şaşmaz) 'established in the image of a mafia-macho Turkish guy', according to Hürriyet Daily News reviewer Emrah Güler, and was 'admired by the unemployed and frustrated young men all over Turkey'. Güler describes him as “the Turkish equivalent of 24’s Jack Bauer, entangled in the deep state, disguised as a mafia boss”. 'Short and ordinary looking,' according to Güler, 'Polat has a self-defined sense of justice that included hanging traitors in the city center of Istanbul.' 'The series had reached such a cult status that many young men officially changed their names to Polat Alemdar', Güler concludes.[6]
The show has been dubbed into SyrianArabic dialect and proved one of the most popular Turkish drama to be dubbed into Arabic.
Controversies[edit]
An episode of Valley of the Wolves: Ambush that depicted Israeli Mossad agents spying inside Turkey and kidnapping Turkish babies was roundly criticized by the Israeli government and media.[10] The Turkish government's refusal to act on Israeli requests to more strictly censor the show had contributed to a deepening of a row between the two countries, culminating in Turkey's threat to recall ambassador to Israel Ahmet Oguz Celikkol after a controversial diplomatic meeting with Israeli Deputy Foreign Minister Danny Ayalon in January 2010.[11]Volkswagen headline font download.
