The warrior’s lament, mixed with the sound from the strings of an Arabian guitar. A sword, in which the ancient inscriptions lie on rusty iron, emerges from the darkness and crosses impetuously over an old and waving flag.
That is, in short, a brief trailer description of one of the most watched television series in Turkey and the Middle East. “Dirilis Ertugrul” in Turkish, or “Resurrection Ertugrul” as it appears in Netflix, where the story of the father of Osman the First is depicted, whom was the founder of the Ottoman Empire.
According to the series, the life of this epic character was marked by great challenges in the 13 Century that involved long nomadic migrations of the Kayi Tribe, from territories settled in what is known today as Iraq, Iran and Syria. Not to mention the fierce wars that ancient Turks had to face with Mongols, Crusaders and the Byzantine Empire.
The series is rich in the reconstruction of historical details, to the point of preserving the names of characters that really existed. In addition, it handles with great care the description of daily life, folklore, economy, commerce, gastronomy, as well as festivities and handicrafts famous for its Persian rugs.
