January 11th 2001 is a very special day in Turkey. In the evening of that day, the streets all over the country were completely empty when the final episode of Ikinci Bahar was being aired on a TV channel. The title of the series, "Ikinci Bahar" means "second spring", a term used for describing romantic affair between middle aged and mature people. It is the story of ordinary people taking place in traditional Samatya neighbourhood of Istanbul. The leading actors Turkan Soray and Sener Sen are the top stars of Turkish movie history, comparable to Elizabeth Taylor and Al Pacino.
