Kızılcık Şerbeti (The Cranberry Sherbet) series, which was broadcast on Show TV screens, became one of the popular productions on Friday evenings.
The great cultural differences experienced when a young woman who grew up in a secular family is married to a conservative family is reflected on the screen. Of course, the aim of this project is to present a reflection of the situations experienced by families in these different cultures, of which there are many examples in the society. Raising awareness and emphasizing the importance of tolerating each other.
When we look at the reflections of this awareness-raising effort in the Kızılcık Şerbeti series on social media, it is seen that it also fuels the prejudices that can be described as separation in some viewers.
Along with the fact that the character of nature has great problems in the conservative family structure she enters, some viewers say, “As long as families are involved in everything, they can never be happy. Doğa made the biggest mistake by not listening to her mother’s words”.
Some viewers who thought that Doğa had to save themselves in this family said, “I had a crisis while watching. Everyone should marry people of their own equal.”
In fact, this shows that the series does not serve the purpose of social awareness, and that it may fuel the feelings of not accepting differences and separation in some viewers.
Some viewers, on the other hand, convey that the characters of Doğa and Fatih should try to understand each other and that they can find a solution in this way.
In the Kızılcık Şerbeti series, everyone tries to draw a conclusion by looking at the family environment in which they live, and the need to understand the other person comes to the fore even more in each new episode.
