Synopsis
Şehrazat is an aspiring architect who is in desperate need for additional money to pay for the treatment of her son, Kaan, who is suffering from leukemia. After pleading to borrow money from several sources, she is stuck with her boss, Onur, who will give her the money she needs for Kaan's treatment. However, there is a catch: Onur will only give her the money if she agrees to spend a night with him at his residence.
Plot summary
Şehrazat (portrayed by Berguzar Korel) is a talented architect who works at a construction company owned by Onur (Halit Ergenc) and Kerem (Tardu Flordun). She lost her husband and is devastated, once more, when she learns that her five-year-old son suffers from leukemia and needs an urgent and very expensive treatment. She is able to raise a quarter of the money, but still needs a large portion. Although she is unwanted by her rich father-in-law because he accuses her of killing his son (her late husband), she begs for him to give her money but is cruelly rejected. As a last chance, Sehrazat tries to receive the money as a loan from her boss, Onur, who is secretly attracted to her. Onur accepts to give her the money on one condition: that she spends a night with him. This indecent offer, which turns the life of Sehrazat upside down, becomes the beginning of a spiraling tale in which Sehrazat is trapped.
