Maternal and paternal-subsidiary problems have been portrayed many times in movies, television and literature. And this is a kind of tragedy that many people have gone through.
On this occasion, we will introduce you to a Turkish TV series that talks about the complicated relationship between a mother and her daughter, the product of maternal abandonment. Stay and read everything you need to know about the series Scorpion, also known in its original language as Akrep.
Plot of the Turkish series Scorpion.
The plot of the series Scorpion revolves around Perihan, who was a single mother who met a man with a lot of money. This woman, falling in love with that man, victim of his charms (perhaps monetary), ends up marrying him.
However, contrary to what a good mother would do, instead of taking her only daughter with her, she chooses to abandon her and go to live far away where she tries to make a new life as if nothing had happened.
But the problems that are created and tried to be ignored, time takes them and at a certain moment brings them back to be faced and/or solved. And this is what happens with Perihan, who over the years meets again with Ferda, his daughter.
But of course, this reunion is far from being a loving reunion and provoking hugs; on the contrary, the encounter unleashes a real war between mother and daughter, since there is a pain that burns in the daughter’s chest, a victim of the irresponsibility and lack of love of an indolent mother.
Thus, the reunion begins the way most meetings of absent parents with their children do, with a single reproach and a single question that yearns to be answered as soon as possible: Why did you abandon me?
Thus begins a war between scorpions, full of betrayal, pain, curse and love.
