Through different eyes

Yeşilçam Nostalgic A viewer raised on the classics, looking for warm storytelling and strong acting.

Stories of orphaned girls without family are a vein the old Yeşilçam films loved too, and there is real heart here. Eylül, landing in the orphanage, finds in Feride a spirit like her own, and that is the warm center of the series. The bond between Biran Damla Yılmaz and İpek Karapınar is its best side. Still, 113 episodes is a long road, and spread over so many episodes the sentiment can repeat itself now and then. Even so, it is a series that teaches young people compassion and solidarity.

Family Viewer Asks whether the whole household can watch it; cares about humor and heart.

It is the story of girls living in an orphanage, about longing for a family, prejudice and standing together. The message is good. But be careful: our heroine has been rejected by her mother and abused by her stepfather. With small children these parts can be heavy. It works best watched with teenagers, with some talking afterwards. Fine for the household, but younger ones should not watch alone.

History & Society Lens Asks about the period, the social background and what the work reflects.

The series puts young people on the margins of society at its center: girls raised in an orphanage, their longing for a family and their struggle against the prejudice of the outside world. It touches a sensitive social area and builds on solidarity, so it is understandable that it won the Barrier-Free Life Foundation's Best Drama award. On the other hand, inside the youth-and-family drama mold, emotional storytelling can sometimes replace institutional reality. Worth a look for anyone interested in the subject, but do not expect a documentary.
