Child abuse and the need for protection
The series begins with Eylül being abused by her stepfather and sent to a children’s home by her mother. A 2017 RTÜK report records public complaints about the series’ scenes of violence and abuse against a girl by her stepfather. This makes the series a fictional work that brings issues of child protection and institutional care into view, but it does not establish that the story is based on a specific real case.
