Plot

Orhan, who works as a literature professor at a university in Eskisehir, unexpectedly ends his relationship with Ayse whom he was planning to marry, and comes to Istanbul where he meets Oya.

Sinekatalog’s take

A romantic melodrama about a professor who abandons one relationship and stumbles into another. The premise is familiar and the emotions are broadly drawn. Fans of Turkish love stories may find it soothing, but it offers few surprises.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
