Mimaroglu: The Robinson of Manhattan Island tells the story of two free spirits: legendary electronic music composer Ilhan Mimaroglu and his vibrant wife, Güngör, who migrated to the United States from Turkey in early 1960s. Using the couple’s personal archives, this documentary captures the career of Ilhan as an edgy artist, and the power of his and Güngör’s lifelong companionship.

Winner of the 2020 Turkish Film Critics Association (SIYAD) Best Documentary Award.
