What happens

Haliç Panoraması (Fransızca: Panorama de la Corne d’Or), Lumière Kardeşler'in Cinématographe operatörlerinden Alexandre Promio tarafından çekilen ve İstanbul'un ilk film kaydı olarak kabul edilen 1897 yapımı bir Fransız filmidir. Film, Lumière Kataloğu'nda 416 numaralı film olarak "Panorama de différents bateaux qui défilent le long de la rive européenne." (tr. Avrupa kıyı şeridi boyunca geçit yapan farklı teknelerin bir panoraması) açıklaması ve Panorama de la Corne d'Or (tr. Haliç Panoraması) adıyla yer almaktadır. Muhtemelen bu filmden dakikalar sonra Boğaziçi Kıyılarının Panoraması filmi çekilmiştir. (from Wikipedia, CC BY-SA)
