How do events from the distant past affect the present? Why is a seemingly ordinary professor being spied on by the secret services? And how many trials can the human heart endure?
Istanbul, 2001. Maya Duran, a single mother, is desperately trying to combine work at the university with raising her teenage son. She is assigned to accompany the mysterious Maximilian Wagner, an elderly Harvard professor. And although at first it seems that nothing will disturb the gray everyday life, very soon Maya's life literally turns upside down - the past, buried under the rubble of World War II, carefully hidden by the secret services, forgotten by the modern generation, comes to light. Forbidden love, the hushed-up tragedy of Struma, the unbearable underbelly of The Magnificent Century — how to preserve humanity when you witness hell?..
Inspired by real events from 1939-1945, Serenade for Nadya is both a poignant love story and a gripping testament to the power of human connection in times of social crisis.
