- Overview
- The story follows our hero, nicknamed "Child," who was kidnapped at a young age and fell into the hands of a gang of thieves. When he meets "Rüya" (Tuba Ünsal), who hates children but hosts a children's program on a special TV channel, a series of complicated events unfold for both sides. Our child hero is one of the most successful thieves in the gang. The reason for his theft is that for every 30,000 YTL he steals, the gang returns one child to their family.
