Their combination of epic storytelling, authentic settings and high production values has made them increasingly popular with both broadcasters and television audiences.
Among TRT’s successful productions is «Resurrection: Ertuğrul», the internationally acclaimed historical drama that introduced millions of viewers worldwide to Turkish epic storytelling.
