Bir Küçük Gün Işığı
A self-made woman, Elif owns her own wedding and events organization company and has forged her successful professional career with effort and tenacity. She is happily married to Hakan, the COO of a major company with whom she has yet to have any children. The same day that Elif considers starting the adoption process, she receives an unexpected call from the hospital to inform her that her husband had been in an accident. Arriving at the hospital, Elif learns that her husband has died. Elif goes from sadness to major surprise after discovering that Hakan has a daughter. Disappointed and distraught, she can hardly believe that her husband has betrayed her by hiding for years that he had another wife and a daughter, Guneş, who is unable to speak. Elif tries to communicate with her to no avail and her world falls apart. While she lives a real nightmare, she meets Firat, a businessman who has been looking for her missing sister for years, and their paths cross inevitably.
