“Kübra” is a Netflix series created by Durul Taylan and Yağmur Taylan starring Çağatay Ulusoy. With Aslıhan Malbora, Ahsen Eroğlu, Nazan Kesal and Cihan Talay.
The tech vigilante and prophet known for stirring up controversy makes a grand return to Netflix. The series hinges on a clever premise: an artificial intelligence program controls an individual who, albeit manipulated, ends up becoming a prophet amongst his own people. He gives back money and sows chaos in the Turkish financial sector.
So, is he a modern-day Robin Hood or a prophet for the people? It’s this brilliant concept that surprised viewers last year on Netflix, and it’s being refreshed for a second season. The series stars Çagatay Ulusoy, who brings all his talent and charisma to this half-crazed, half-enlightened character, turning the Turkish series into a significant hit on Netflix.
The series skillfully weaves religion and popular beliefs into its narrative, simultaneously blending them with modern technology. It’s a combination that has been widely appreciated. Jam-packed with brilliant ideas and backed by stellar cinematographic development, the show features a myriad of interesting characters who revolve around the character of Gökhan Şahinoğlu. The series touches on themes of justice, technology, and also religion and faith.
It’s controversial, relevant, and a massive success on Netflix. Enjoy the ride.
