FATMA SEASON 1:
Created by Ozgur Onurme, “Fatma” is a Turkish thriller drama series that follows Fatma Yilmaz (Burcu Biricik), as she sets out to search for Zafer, but commits an unexpected murder and now has to keep killing in order to survive. The series made its debut on Tuesday, April 27, 2021, on Netflix.
Fatma (35), an ordinary cleaning lady who commits an unexpected murder while searching for her missing husband, Zafer (Ferit Kaya), who was just released from jail. Zafer’s dodgy underground associates soon find out what she did, and the only way for her to survive in this man’s world is to continue killing. She gets away with it too – since no one takes her to be more than an ordinary cleaner, she becomes an invisible killer. In the end, murder becomes a release for the years of struggle and grief that she had repressed, and a new part of her identity she must confront.
When the show begins she’s borderline obsessed with finding her husband, whom nobody she knows seems to want anything to do with, which eventually leads her to cross paths with Bayram Karada? (Y?lmaz Ak), Zafer’s former crime boss whose office she cleans. Pointed in the direction of a thug to who Zafer owed a considerable amount of money, she ends up crossing a line from which there’s no real way back – and her continued efforts only result in more trauma and bloodshed.
