It certainly can be an idiom but in the context you supply it just seems to be a statement of fact. The speaker is saying that the circumstances require him to have his back turned (against his will) to one of the persons he is addressi

Hi

The idiom in the dictionary is "turn your back on someone" not "to someone"
Malrey, do you think "to" is correct?

here are examples I've found in the dictionary

I turned my back on the dead horse and walked slowly away.
I turned my back on the shouting man and left the room.

How would you say in natural English?

I had my back to the wind.
