In this poignant series adapted from Turkish writer Sevinç Çokum's novel, a Turkish family fleeing the brutal persecution in Bulgaria during the forced assimilation campaign is faced with an unbearable decision—they must leave their young daughter, Aysel, behind. As Aysel is taken hostage by the Bulgarian authorities, the remaining family members embark on a dangerous journey to cross the border into Türkiye. The series unfolds the heart-wrenching tale of Aysel’s struggle for survival and the emotional turmoil her family faces, while shedding light on Bulgaria's state-operated, inhumane campaign against its native Turkish population during the forced assimilation era.
