Calinos Entertainment to Globally Distribute New Series ‘Hidden Garden’
NOW’s upcoming series Gizli Bahçe, produced by TMC Film, is set to make its mark on the global stage under the English title Hidden Garden. Calinos Entertainment has secured the international distribution rights for the highly anticipated show, starring Murat Yıldırım and Ebru Şahin.
‘Hidden Garden’ Synopsis
Nazlı is a young, poor, single mother living with her son, Memo. When Demir Akçınar, Memo’s wealthy uncle, finds out about his nephew after his brother’s death, he is determined to take Memo under his care. However, once he learns about Nazlı’s profession, Demir refuses to let someone like her raise his nephew and begins a fierce custody battle. Nazlı, however, is not the woman Demir thinks she is. As Nazlı and Demir fight for Memo’s future, long-buried secrets, family schemes, and shadows from the past complicate the struggle even further.
Erol Avcı, founder of TMC Film, shared his thoughts on the project: “Hidden Garden is a show that combines its core love story with deep and interesting themes like family and finding roots. We’ve balanced the usual world of secrets and intrigue found in dramas with the warmth of family life. We’ve done this successfully in many of our globally successful projects, and we believe this story will resonate with both local and international audiences. It’s also been great to work with NOW again after a long time. With the partnership of TMC, NOW, and Calinos, we’re confident it will be a success both in Türkiye and abroad.”
Fırat Gülgen, Chairman of Calinos Holding, added, “We’re excited to take on the international distribution of Hidden Garden, a story full of love and secrets. As we celebrate Calinos Entertainment’s 25th anniversary, we want to thank TMC, the producer of many of Turkey’s and the world’s most-watched shows, and NOW for their important role in bringing this series to viewers. We look forward to continuing our long-term collaboration.”
Türkan Yurdam, Director of Drama for The Walt Disney Company Turkey, commented: “We’re thrilled with the early international interest Hidden Garden has attracted and hope it will make an impact worldwide. With its talented cast and compelling story, it’s one of our most ambitious projects. Audiences will enjoy a beautiful love story. We’re also happy to add this new series to our ongoing collaboration with Calinos Entertainment.”
Hidden Garden will soon premiere on NOW, with expectations running high for both domestic and international success.
