What is The Gift about?

An Istanbul painter who has obsessively drawn the same symbol since childhood learns it has been unearthed at Göbekli Tepe, the world’s oldest temple — pulling her into a mystical inheritance spanning millennia. Netflix’s second Turkish original blends archaeology, reincarnation and family secrets.

Celluloid verdict: An ambitious metaphysical mystery anchored by Beren Saat’s committed performance — critics were divided on its convolutions but admired its unusual setting and bold, mystical sweep. The cast is led by Beren Saat, Mehmet Günsür, Metin Akdülger, Melisa Şenolsun.
