Trivia, insights & behind the scenes
Şoray and İnanır were THE on-screen couple of Turkish Yeşilçam cinema—this was their 9th collaboration, and audiences expected tragic endings by now.
Cevriye's name derives from 'cevirme' (to turn/rotate)—she literally turns her life around for a stranger, then rotates back to nothing.
