The new Netflix series “Kübra,” which will focus on a very current issue for modern society – the relationship between humans and artificial intelligence – started filming on March 29. What do we know about the project right now?

The digital platform Netflix has released the first still of the series “Kübra” featuring Çağatay Ulusoy in the lead role, thus announcing the start of filming. The series is directed by Yağmur and Durul Taylan, known for their previous work on the series “Magnificent Century” and “Wounded Love”. Also starring Aslıhan Malbora, Büşra Develi, Nazan Kesal, Ahsen Eroğlu, and Ahmet Mümtaz Taylan. The series was written by Murat Uyurkulak, Rana Mamatlıoğlu, and Bekir Baran Sıtkı and adapted from the science fiction novel of the same name by Afşin Kum.

It is the story of Gökhan, a religious young man who is loved and respected in his poor neighborhood. He tries to straighten out his life to marry his beloved. In a virtual dating group, he meets a girl named Kübra. She provides him with information and warnings about unexpected events that no one else knows about. Gökhan finds himself on a path he never expected, as Kübra is not a living person, but an artificial intelligence. In this journey, he will have supporters and enemies. The clash of traditional Islamic culture with the frequently unsettling and perplexing reality of artificial intelligence promises to give audiences a lot to ponder.
