The Club

This show is based on a true story set against the buzzing, transformative times of 1955 Istanbul. Matilda (32) has just been pardoned and released from prison after 17 years.

This is her first day free and there is someone important she must reconnect with - a daughter, Rasel (17) who was raised an orphan while Matilda was locked away, and has grown up to become a rebellious young woman.

When Matilda finds out that her daughter was accused of sabotaging a nightclub, she confronts the manager, who forces her to sign a blank check and to work at the club to repay the debt.

There, she will meet her colleagues - an eclectic group of individuals from different backgrounds and religions who will learn to overcome their differences and their egos to become their own kind of family.

With time, we will come to understand why Matilda was imprisoned, and why she’s against the relationship Rasel has with a young muslim taxi driver who has stolen her heart.
