TR original
Ferhat (49), a factory manager in Istanbul, and Handan (45), a bank manager, decide to have a child through surrogacy with Lia (28), a young artist of Georgian and Ukrainian descent. Shortly after their daughter Ada (1) is born, war breaks out between Russia and Ukraine. As a result, Lia is forced to stay in Istanbul with Ferhat and Handan for a while longer. Believing that surrogacy is the formula that will take her to Europe, Lia does not want to leave Ada.
