Eccho Rights will launch Asiye, the new daily drama produced by Kino Film Productions for Turkish broadcaster Kanal 7, at MIPCOM in Cannes. Presales open ahead of the series’ November premiere on Kanal 7, with filming due to begin on October 17.

Asiye is the latest title from Eccho Rights’ long-running partnership with Kanal 7, which has already delivered international successes including Legacy, Winds of Love and Behind the Veil, the highest-rating daily drama ever broadcast in Turkey and now in its fourth season.

Seven years ago, Asiye lost her husband, her newborn son and her freedom in a single day. Now released from prison, she saves a drowning boy at the gates of one of Istanbul’s most powerful families, not knowing he is the son she believed she would never see again.

The series is directed by Taner Tunç and Nuh Şen, who have both directed Kanal 7’s long-running hit Legacy. Esengül Aypek stars as Asiye, with Ferhat Işıktaş as İlyas.

Handan Özkubat, Director of Turkish Drama at Eccho Rights, said: “Kanal 7 knows exactly how to make daily drama that travels, and Asiye has everything that made Behind the Veil and Legacy such international successes: a mother’s love, a buried truth and a powerful family with everything to hide. With a directing team that knows this genre inside out, MIPCOM is the perfect chance for buyers to secure this highly anticipated series before it airs.”
