What is Ayni Yagmur Altinda about?
The story centers on Rosa, a young woman whose work has long been tied to human-rights causes. She is in London attending a public demonstration connected to Gaza when she first encounters Ali, exchanging little more than a moment amid the crowd. Soon afterward her circumstances shift sharply: she is contending with a serious illness while following a personal question that draws her toward Istanbul. In that city her path and Ali's cross a second time, and the passing acquaintance turns into a close relationship. What begins as an unexpected romance gradually sets a chain of events in motion, with outcomes that neither of them foresaw and that reach beyond the pair. The series moves between the two cities as it traces how a single encounter can redirect an entire life.
Cast & crew
The cast is led by Burak Tozkoparan and Nilsu Berfin Aktas. They are joined by Fikret Kuskan, Bahar Sahin, Taro Emir Tekin, Hulya Avsar, Deniz Ugur, and Levent Ulgen. Ali Balci directs.
