Taner Ölmez is brilliant in his portrail of an doctor who is an autistic savant who had a traumatic childhood and his struggle to be accepted and accept love, while dealing with the drama of the hospital and of course the plots to get rid of him.
It is not your formula dizi with the romantic challenges, villains, secrets, devious mothers, revenge and misunderstandings. The hospital setting is like most hospital dramas with one or two patients at a time and a small cast of doctors and nurses and lots of drama and side relationships within the cast.
I have had very smart students with autism and had the pleasure of seeing them make friends, be accepted and contribute. One student could not join in the circle and hold hands and used to twirl around when we were seated but eventually with the acceptance of his peers, that behavior stopped. Taner Ölmez perfected the gait, facial expressions, and speech of this character. It is a feel good series as you watch Ali gain acceptance, receive love, and become more confident.
