Legend of the Red Deer and the Hunter, Turkish animation





Alageyik Efsanesi (Legend of the Red Deer-Turkish/ Anatolian folk legend)

An animation video made by Ali Can Meydan in Turkey.

English info: A short story based on the Anatolian folk legend about a hunter who is a lunatic, addicted to hunting red deers. He killed hundreds of them and still he couldn't stop.

There are chains of mountains called Aladağlar(like ala-geyik) near to the Adana province, the name of their peak is Kızılkaya (redrock), so its believed that this story had happened in that area, and the name of the mountains were coming from the blood of our couple.
