The Nameless (İsimsizler) (translated)

İsimsizler (The Nameless) is an action series made by Es Film and Barakuda Film that began on Kanal D on March 27, 2017, and ended on December 16, 2017, with its 27th episode. It ran two seasons; the first, of 13 episodes, aired on Monday evenings, and the last episodes of the second on Saturday evenings. Osman Kaya, Emre Konuk and Volkan Kocatürk directed in turn. Four writers worked on the first season, among them Hale Çalap and Ayça Mutlugil; the second season was written by İki Kelime Yazı Grubu.

Fatih (Uğur Güneş) is a young, successful diplomat. About to start work at the Swiss mission, he sees on television the news of the death of Orhan Yağız, district governor of Virankaya, and is moved by it. He volunteers for the Virankaya post and takes it up with a seven-person team of his own choosing. Virankaya is fictional; the place meant is the Derik district of Mardin, and the first season was made in memory of Muhammed Fatih Safitürk, the Derik district governor who died in an attack on the governor's office in 2016.

Filming was first planned in the southeast but the first season was shot in Bigadiç, Balıkesir, and the second moved to Istanbul. The first episode took 22 days to finish; the production team numbered 160, and the actors took two weeks of weapons training. In the cast Algı Eke plays Elif, Burak Temiz Selim, Gürkan Guzeyhuz Sinan, Bülent Alkış Dayı, Merve Akkaya Heja and Kürşat Alnıaçık Kudret.
