Did you get the English subs for the first episode?
Sefirin Kiz – Episode 1
My sabbatical from the Turkish drama is broken by the much awaited drama from Engin & Neslihan - Sefirin Kizi.
The premier episode quickly brings the conflict of the story to the audience. Did you notice a pattern on the introduction scenes of Engin’sdrama – FGSN, Olene Kader etc which is centered on a wedding or gala? While the festivities reach a climax, the suppressed silence of Sancar is tested by Kavrug(?)who shares the folklore of a scorned girl who vanished as a bird.
The non-parallel narration establishes the leads who are ina deep emotional relationship as young adults, and whose destiny is written bytraditions. While Gediz & his sister play the catalysts, Sancar’s siblings reinforce their tribe.
Flashbacks show Nare to be lonely and vulnerable young adult who cares a dime for her the pampered background; Sancar as a poor tenant farmer who has big dreams for himself.
Nare & Sancar friendship remains intact as pen pals and yearly meetings during vacations. While the friendship blossoms with innocence, there is an evident awareness of Sancar and Nare realizing that they belong to different social protocols.
They are sensitive to each other with an angelic love to guard Sancar’s insecurities of lesser education and economies or Nare’s deeply seated emotions.
While many theories on why did Sancar reject Nare on the (clandestine?)wedding have been written ( equally enjoyed reading them), here is another view….along with rush of male testosterone which was governed by traditions,rejected by pride etc, there seems to be condition bias from Sancar for being poor and thus naïve. Was he humiliated by Nare’s father during the wedding? Was he disapproved of his choice by his family? Maybe…the toll of taking on the rest of the world for his ladylove became a burden when Nare failed her virginity test.
Why Nare choose the wedding night to share her misery? Did she want to reset her life during the sanctity of marriage?
Nare on the run, is focused to secure her daughter’s future and Sancar becomes her natural choice. Surprisingly, the only inquiry on Sancar while talking to Gediz is to understand how & when did Sancar become a wealthy man.!!
Money can’t buy happiness.
The extended cast have done a wonderful job to keep the story in nuances….Sancar’s family…his anne as mother hen, siblings ( there must be a reason for his sister to be limping…is it polio?) , Yahya’s wife to give comic relief ( reminds us of Yeli Gelin drama), Kavrug acting as a soothsayer and last but not the least of Gediz.
Is Gediz the sophisticated version of Sancar? Why are writers putting a Japanese connect to Gediz and Nare? Very intriguing character andplayed to the T…be it the bromance, countenance of successful business man or an eligible bachelor. Please don’t turn him grey.
The cast and crew have done a fabulous job to keep the audience engaged with beautiful camera shots, music and locations. Neslihan is a discovery :). And Engin is simply the best.
Episode 2 -Synopsis
This episode was largely to establish the relationship of Sancar & his daughter Melek. Sancar's extended family to accept the fact of DNA result & thus adding youngest member to their clan.
While Nare realises, its not final kill at the monster, Gediz moves around the central characters with agility to keep his intentions guessing.
Will come back with detailed review on this episode
