Price of Passion (Siyah Beyaz Aşk)

TV Series · 2017–2018 · 10 people

Kanal D aired Siyah Beyaz Aşk (Black and White Love), known internationally as Price of Passion, a Turkish series, from October 16, 2017, to May 28, 2018, ending with its 32nd episode. Produced by D Productions, it mixes drama and romance with crime.

The story pairs a young doctor devoted to healing others with a cold-blooded man who has a wounded past. The woman who saves lives is captured by the man who takes them, and this forced closeness ties two opposite worlds together. Birce Akalay plays the doctor Aslı and İbrahim Çelikkol plays Ferhat, a figure from the underworld. The plot unfolds in the shadows of a large city, amid hunger for power and the dirty money of corruption. Ece Dizdar appears as İdil, with Muhammet Uzuner, Arzu Gamze Kılınç, Deniz Celiloğlu and Uğur Aslan also in the cast.

Yasin Uslu directed, from scripts by Eylem Canpolat and Sema Ergenekon. İbrahim Çelikkol and Birce Akalay share the lead roles.

Cast

Through different eyes

Series Binger A series devotee tracking character arcs, cast chemistry and season pacing.

The whole show rests on the contrast between Birce Akalay and İbrahim Çelikkol: a doctor who saves lives and a man who takes them. The forced closeness between Aslı and Ferhat creates a strong pull, and the pair's chemistry is what you remember most. Ece Dizdar's İdil adds a color of her own. Wrapping up in a single season of 32 episodes also keeps the story from being stretched thin. Even so, the strand about power and dirty money in the city's shadows sometimes trails behind the romance, and a few episodes in the middle feel like they're marking time.

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

This is not a series for young children. It deals with heavy material: the criminal underworld, dirty money and a woman falling into the hands of a man from that world. The love story is strong, but framing that forced closeness as romance left me with questions. If you watch it with teenagers, it is worth talking it over afterwards. It speaks mostly to adults.

Action & Thriller Fan Puts pace, tension and set pieces first; little patience for slow drama.

The crime side gives the show solid tension. Ferhat is a cold-blooded type, and with the city's dark dealings, lust for power and dirty money in play, the stakes are high. But the weight still falls on the romance, and the emotional side sometimes gets in the way of the pace. It isn't an action series; put it on when you want a love story with an edge.
