Approximately 3300 years ago, on a cuneiform tablet, the Hittite King Muvatalli begged the Storm God. However, a hundred years later, severe storms blew over Anatolia, and the "Land of Hatti" and what we call the "Land of the Hittite" today became a pile of stones and earth, from one end to the other. But this civilization still lives on the traces they left in Anatolia and will continue to live for centuries. The documentary "From Hattis to Hittites", produced by Suha Arın in 1974 with the support of the Turing and Automobile Association, as the first film in the "Traces of Anatolian Civilizations" series, is restored 45 years later from original negatives and magnetic sound tapes.
