Based on the true story of the Şakir Paşa family, an Ottoman dynasty shattered by scandal only to give rise to some of the 20th century’s greatest artists. In 1911, Şakir Paşa was a retired Ottoman commander and history writer living on Büyükada, when his eldest son Cevat returned from Oxford with an Italian wife. They all lived together in the family villa, where the bohemian Cevat was increasingly at odds with his military father, who disapproved of Cevat’s wife and lifestyle. But Cevat’s wife became infatuated with the older man, and he was unable to resist. So began a chain of events that tore the Şakir Paşa family apart – which is just the beginning of their remarkable story.

He was an Ottoman historian and statesman. He became a captain and general. Later, he became the Governor of Crete, the Ambassador to Bucharest and Athens. One of his children is the Fisherman of Halicarnassus, another is the painter Fahrulzizazeyt, and another is the ceramicist Füreyya Koran. So, what is the subject of the series? The bride, the mother-in-law relationship, ridiculous things like what the pasha does or doesn't do. Who takes it, who takes it, you understand. Even the dog in the series is a pervert. How did they show this man in the series? Look at his history, look at the way he is reflected in the series. Most of the people who liked it have not even heard his name. Keep making such terrible productions. What a shame...
