I am so grateful to find an Eco-feminst production from Turkiye. I am fed up with the father and son conflicts and praising of patriarch in the Turkish media. This serial was a fresh breath to take although there is still some issues concerning patriarch manifested by police, guns, father's black car etc..
Though i would like to see more of how did the mother and daughter decorated their private rooms. The rooms awaked the curiousity and hinted some mystery but at the end the rooms were plain and empty. Of course they could stay only for a short while in each hotel and had no chance to build a private space, yet i wish i could see more authenticity in the rooms.
Intertextuality between such a simple kids Classic Bambi is stunning. The serial earns my 8 shiny stars.

Melisa Sozen and Eylul Tumbar. 👏🏻👏🏻 The serie adapted from Perihan Magden's novel of the same name attracts attention with its veteran cast. When I first started the serie, the story really affected me deeply. I finished the serie in one day by watching it non-stop. It was a very enjoyable, very fluid serie. Anyone who thinks if I shouldn't watch it, should open it and watch it immediately, I don't think they will ever regret it. I like it so much that I don't hold back from recommending it to all my friends. I hope that Turkish productions will continue to be of such high quality and make themselves watched. Netflix has done a very good job, congratulations to everyone who has contributed in the production. 👏🏻
Welcome to all the most fantastic hotels in Turkey 🇹🇷 My name is Mr. X and I'll be your guide tonight..
Beautiful scenery, polished and well presented but in lack of substance and surprise! Turn off the language and just watch in silence is more exciting than listening to the mother & Bambi presenting/talking like robot's to each other!
It could have been sooo amazing if they just used the natural ingredients from a human being like really work for the script but failed!
I love to see that the production changes the voice over to English and hires really professional actors and saves it a little bit ...

The bizarre relationship between mom and daughter kept me watching. It was the strangest combo. The daughter was super strange. Seriously naive. The mom was a rich lunatic. I know someone like that, so it was fascinating to see how they tossed money around. The chase was crazy. The mom thinking someone wants her daughter...well she was right. The dad was trifling. Both women are gorgeous. I also like how it was filmed with the interviews and such. I do have to say, after the 2nd episode, I kept thinking is every other episode going to be similar with them checking in a hotel and blah blah blah. It was. But then the chase started which made it more interesting. I wanted the girl to break free and say mama is crazy, but she didn't, she was naive for too long. I'm assuming if they do a season 2, she'll find her dad. What a bizarre relationship show, but oh so true with some rich families. Sad, but true.
The clunky dialogue that other reviewers have mentioned may be due to poor translation from the Turkish, but there are too many scenarios where one is left thinking WTF?
The police who are chasing our heroes appear to be complete idiots that emote all the time, but perhaps Turkish police really speak and behave like that, I don't know. Otherwise, the main protagonists are believable and engaging, and the scenery is spectacular.
Nevertheless, I have so many questions about the plot- where did all the money come from and why aren't they more careful how it's spent, but I am only at episode five...
