A NETFLIX ORIGINAL SERIES
Have you ever thought that you were lost…
that you don't know where you're going...
or where you came from?
Have you ever asked yourself who you are?
What should I remember?
What is my deepest wish?
I'm sure that you've had this kind of wish...
because we all have.
I learned that we really have to believe in miracles.
All you have to do is take that step.
When you are able to stop resisting your heart, and surrender,
you can see that even the most painful thing in life is a gift.
The step you take to escape the pain can bring you to a threshold.
And once you cross that threshold,
you can never go back to sleep.
No way!
THE PREVIOUS DAY
Cansu.
I'm sorry. You have mistaken me for someone else. I'm Elif.
Elif?
I'm sorry, but I have a lot to do. Have a good day.
Excuse me, I'm sorry. Did Merve send you for the job?
Why didn't you say so? I shut the door in your face like an idiot. Come in.
You're very pale. Would you like a drink?
-Water, if you have any. -I'll get you some.
Sorry about that. When you said Cansu, I got confused.
Me too. It was my fault.
It happens.
-Thank you. -You're welcome.
Merve told you about the working conditions, right?
But you can tell me again if you like.
Okay, so...
I need to get a collection ready, but my assistant quit.
So I need an assistant who knows how to sew and how to draw.
What do you do? Who have you worked with?
I'm a painter. I had an exhibition recently.
Have you ever worked in the fashion industry?
Yes, I know fashion. I can do your drawings.
Great! I've had so many orders recently. I need a person I can trust.
You can trust me.
I feel the same way.
Alright, well...
How about the wage? What do you have in mind?
It doesn't matter. Anything you say.
Okay.
My brother.
Erhan.
We have a deal then.
You can start on Monday.
Okay.
Where did you say you live?
It's a little bit complicated.
Well, since we will work late,
you could sleep on the couch, if you don't mind.
Okay.
Great.
You still haven't told me your name. Let's start over. I am Elif.
Let's start over. Atiye.
Thank you very much.
I really need this job.
Mr. Ozan!
Atiye.
Nice to meet you.
Have we met before?
I don't think so. No.
See you on Monday.
See you.
Thank you for this miracle.
This is another possibility.
She looks interesting.
-What was her name again? -Atiye.
I think so, too. She's eccentric.
She hugged me as soon as I opened the door.
But I felt a rush of affection for her. I liked her.
What's so urgent? Why did you call?
You'd only come if I said it was urgent.
-Did you take your pill? -Yes.
Using birth control pills and contraception in general is crucial.
Parks and schools are now empty. No children have been born.
Experts are alarmed about the decrease in birth rates over the last 15 years.
Our guest, Dr. Ayça Pamir, is with us.
Why do pregnant women die, Doctor?
The baby in the womb causes the collapse of the mother's immune system.
Could you turn up the volume?
The first symptoms are nosebleeds and sight and hearing issues.
The deaths of pregnant women leave the medical community helpless.
To get pregnant means risking death until science finds a solution.
If a solution can't be found, can we say that humankind is in danger of extinction?
Unfortunately, yes.
Miss, if a baby means hope, maybe the Creator has given up on us, huh?
Yes? Who are you looking for?
My family, Serap and Mustafa Özgürsoy, but...
Mr. Mustafa moved out years ago.
Do you have his new address?
I'm really sorry. I don't have any money, and my family isn't home.
No worries. If you have a place to go, I can take you.
They say humankind is dying, but I'm not dead yet. Let's go.
Thank you.
TAXI
-Dad? -Who are you looking for?
Are you okay?
No, not at all.
Come in. I'll get you some water.
Come in, please. Go ahead.
Go ahead, please.
Have a seat. I'll get some water.
-Here you are. -Thank you.
Where is my mom?
Sorry?
You really didn't recognize me.
Miss, you are a bit confused. I've never seen you before.
What's your name?
Atiye Özgürsoy.
Özgürsoy? Did you come here because of our similar surnames?
Where is your wife?
Do I look like I have a wife? Look at this mess. I've never married.
Alright.
You're still a policeman. You didn't quit. You've probably never met my mother.
Do you have a problem?
Memory loss or something like that?
I think so. Sometimes I get confused, as you said.
I'm sorry I bothered you.
Wait a minute. Do you have any ID on you?
No, I don't.
Listen, dear, I'm a policeman. We can go and take your fingerprints.
Maybe you were reported missing. We could find your family.
No, there's no need. I'm sorry. Have a nice day.
4123, Headquarters.
Yes, sir.
Atiye Özgürsoy. Find out who she is.
Got it, sir.
Tea, miss?
Not now, thank you.
Sure. Welcome, pasha.
Thanks, bro.
-Good luck with the work. -Thanks.
Excuse me.
Can I use your laptop? I just need to look something up quickly.
Sure, miss.

Holy shit!
-What are you looking for? -I don't exist.
My mother!
DERANGED WOMAN TURNS MINE UPSIDE DOWN
INCIDENT OCCURS IN A MINE IN URFA
WOMAN CAUSES CHAOS IN THE MINING AREA OF ŞANLIURFA
Let me go! I'm begging you!
This is murder! Murder! You can't dig there!
My daughter will come.
Mommy.
It's not time yet!
Could you find which hospital she's at?
No problem.
Visiting hours are over. Besides, that patient can't have any visitors.
Listen, I'm her daughter. I need to see my mom.
According to our files, she doesn't have a daughter. I need to see your ID.
My wallet was stolen. Please help me. It's really important.
Our chief physician isn't here. If he hears about this, I get fired.
I don't think that the necklace around your neck is there with my mom's consent.
What if the chief physician heard about that?
Mom.
You came.
You're here.
Mom...
Nobody believed me.
Nobody listened.
Okay, I'm here now.
I'm here.
Mom… Dad doesn't recognize me.
Cansu isn't Cansu anymore. Babies are not being born.
Don't let them find you.
Go away.
Go there.
Go.
You can change everything.
You can do it.
What about my grandma, Zühre?
You should go now. They're coming.
-Mom, stop! -Get out of here.
Open the door!
-Mom, what are you doing? Calm down. -Find him. He will help you.
-Take her away. -Mom!
Who is the person I'm supposed to find, Mom? Who?
-Finding the door is his destiny. -Erhan.
And opening it is your duty!
Alright!
Excuse me. I'm looking for Prof. Erhan Kurtiz.
I don't know.
Oh boy, these lectures are never-ending. I won't be able to retire, guys.
Professor, don't we get a goodbye lesson?
Guys, for thousands of years, these lands...
have witnessed wars, chaos, and civilizations.
The reason is...
that the world's largest magnetic field is in this area.
We need to analyze the deaths of pregnant women from this perspective.
We should go deeper and look at the characteristics of this land.
She said you have a duty.
She said the world is pregnant with something big,
and the birth will be here, in Anatolia.
-Sir. -Goodbye.
-Remember us when you wear it. -Sure.
How could I forget you kiddos? Peace out.
Professor Öner. Excuse me, can we talk?
Who are you?
Atiye Özgürsoy.
I'm looking for Erhan Kurtiz, your student.
He was working on the Göbekli Tepe excavation.
His father, Nazım Kurtiz, was your friend.
-Are you a journalist? -No, I'm not.
I was in Göbekli Tepe this morning,
in the cave Nazım discovered years ago.
Something happened. I don't know. I'm here now.
Nobody knows or remembers me here.
It's as if I never existed.
Babies aren't being born, and pregnant women are dying.
I don't know if it's connected.
Listen, Ms. Atiye…
you shouldn't talk about these kind of things in public,
because they'll lock you up.
You believe me, then?
I can say that you are impressed by my books.
I haven't read your books.
I'm telling you what happened to me. Erhan's father--
Nazım is dead, and I haven't seen Erhan for years.
And I don't know how I can help you.
Could you at least tell me how I can find Erhan?
Did you see that, Doctor?
I told you. I said Atiye would come.
But you didn't believe me. Did you see that?
The woman who visited Serap...
if she comes again, let me know.
-Yes? -Hello. Is Erhan home?
No, he isn't. Who are you?
A friend. Who are you?
His fiancée.
When will he get home?
He's out of town. He won't be back for a few days.
What's your name?
Well, I'll come back later.
Thank you.
Shit!
She's here.
So what, am I responsible for all this?
Why are pregnant women dying? Why aren't babies born anymore?
You can change this.
There is a reason you are here. Everything is connected, Atiye.
How can I change it on my own?
You saw the power of only one intent, of one promise.
You are all of us, Atiye.
When you come together with the womb of the Earth,
for the healing of all women, there will be birth.
Who are you?
You haven't found me yet.
Go back to the beginning, to the source where everything began.
My dear Elif, I know what I have written might be meaningless to you,
but please read it all.
Have you ever thought that you are lost,
that you don't know where you're going or where you came from?
Have you ever asked yourself who you are,
or what your deepest wish is?
I'm sure that you've had this kind of wish, because we all have.
My wish was to bring you back.
Then a miracle happened, and here you are.
But babies aren't being born here. There's not a ray of hope.
Now, I have to fix that. I have to go back to where I came from.
No way!
Where are you? Where are the temples?
Grandma?
Damn it, we're too late.
It's alright!
I got this. I told you, I received a letter.
-Who from? -There's no name.
The sender probably mistook me for someone else.
Well, well, the famous breakfast table of Mrs. Melek.
At this hour of the day, it is lunch, not breakfast.
That's my fault.
-Good morning, dear. -Good morning.
I overslept, so Ozan came to wake me up. We're sorry.
Alright, come on. Let's eat.
-Where's Dad? -He'll be here soon.
Sweetie.
We missed you so much.
You lost yourself in your work.
I did, but not anymore. I hired an assistant.
-My love. Ozan. -Good morning.
You take care of anything Elif needs, right?
He sure does, bless his heart.
Of course he does. You're like siblings.
-Your brother gets back today. -Really?
Well, so he should. Am I going to marry instead of him?
-He's a workaholic. -Don't say it like that, sweetie.
-What would I do without Erhan? -Thank goodness we have him.
What if he didn't exist?
I missed my brother so much.
GAIA MINING
Ma'am, what are you doing here?
I came to make a wish.
This is private property. No trespassing.
Who owns this land?
You need to go. Please don't be difficult.
I'm just curious. Is your boss in the car? I'd like to meet him.
Alright, wait here.
She won't leave. She's asking for you, sir.
Erhan?
Wait. How do you know my name?
I think there's a misunderstanding.
My guys will escort you out.
No, there is no misunderstanding. There are temples here.
Don't be ridiculous. There's just a mine.
Erhan, I'm searching for the cave your father found, with the purple rocks.
Everything depends on this.
What do you know about the cave?
I know some other things, too.
Who are you?
I'm Atiye Özgürsoy.
Who are you really, Erhan Kurtiz?
