Summary
"A painter in Istanbul embarks on a personal journey as she unearths universal secrets about an Anatolian archaeological site and its link to her past."

- Official Netflix synopsis Atiye is a young Turkish painter based in Istanbul, along with her family and boyfriend, Ozan, the son of a very wealthy businessman named Serdar. As a painter, she has repeatedly and almost obsessively drawn a mysterious symbol he whole life, and eventually this symbol becomes the main focus of her work. It is in fact, a fertility symbol though she has never known the meaning attached to it.

Atiye and Ozan are hosting an art galley showcasing Atiye’s works featuring the strange symbol she has been seeing and drawing since she was a small child. Despite the success of the gallery (all of Atiye’s works are sold), her disapproving mother Serap wishes her to pursue a more stable job as a local art teacher. Serap, a caring but controlling mother highly involved in her adult children’s lives, is married to security company owner Mustafa; a kind and gentle man who truly loves his children for who they are and is more supportive. Atiye lives with her little sister Cansu, a young and wild fashion designer and they return to their flat after the show, the latter overly drunk.

That night as Atiye lie in bed awake, she comes across breaking news of an archeological discovery by an archeologist named Erhan, who discovers something strange in Göbekli Tepe: an unusual symbol which has laid buried for millennia. Atiye recognises that it is the same symbol that she has been drawing to since childhood. She makes an impulsive decision to go see the symbol the next day herself and leaves abruptly in the morning, to her sisters’ annoyance.
