Starring Vahide Perçin, Ercan Kesal, Mustafa Uğurlu, Cem Bender, Berkay Ateş, Yusuf Çim, Feyza Sevil Güngör and Caner Şahin, Deception revolves around a gripping story of love, betrayal, family, and lies. As a mother’s life shatters with the lies her family tells her, we witness the enduring love of a young couple against all odds.

Valley of Hearts follows the gripping story of Sumru (Ece Uslu), who abandoned her twins at a young age and later married a wealthy businessman, Samet Şansalan (Burak Sergen), in the enchanting region of Cappadocia. Years later, her children, Nuh (Aras Aydın) and Melek (Hafsanur Sancaktutan), uncover their mother’s identity and travel to Cappadocia to confront her. Meanwhile, the return of Cihan (Burak Tozkoparan), Samet’s son from his first marriage, increases the tensions within the family. As Sumru tries to maintain her luxurious life with her new family, the secrets of her past and the arrival of Nuh and Melek lead to unexpected dramatic confrontations with Cihan and his reluctant fiancée, Sevilay (Leyla Tanlar), who is the daughter of Samet’s sister (Esra Dermancıoğlu) sparking new conflicts within the family.
