MIPCOM Spotlight: Calinos Entertainment

The two key launches for Calinos Entertainment at MIPCOM are Our Story and Woman.

The Turkish drama Our Story stars Hazal Kaya, known from the series Feriha. She plays Filiz, a young woman struggling to survive in one of the poorest neighborhoods in Istanbul who catches the eye of Baris, a man with a dark and mysterious past. Woman tells the story of Bahar, a single mother who manages to fall madly in love, only to have her husband die unexpectedly. “We believe that these two new titles will see big demand this year both locally and abroad,” says Ismail Dursunov, Calinos’s deputy general manager. In the romantic series Relationship Status: It’s Complicated, an aspiring scriptwriter experiencing betrayals and hard times crosses paths with a handsome actor.

“We have always liked to be pioneers in what we do,” Dursunov adds.
