Dilek Tasi is set in the late 1980's. Mustafa is condemned to die for a crime he didn't commit. His young daughter is sent to an orphanage, then adopted by a wealthy family who wants to use one of her kidneys to save their young son. But at the mansion the little girl finds a savior, Figen.
Salih Bademci is in the leading role, where he belongs; he's a tremendous actor! His costar is Hazel Subasi, also extremely talented . Together they have great energy and amazing onscreen chemistry, which makes their roles natural and believable. This is often a weakness in Turkish series due to the laws of censorship in Turkiye. As a result, characters in serious relationships only hug, or when they're about to kiss, the phone rings, the dog barks, or the kid cries. In this series, they accomplish their goal of maintaining the standards of decency, while keeping the characters and their roles real.
I can't finish this review without mentioning another of my favorite Turkish actors, Ozan Dolunay. He plays the part of Figen's other love interest and,as always, he's fantastic!
To whom it may concern: Please, don't cancel Dilek Tasi, you have a winner!
