Who Were We Running From? (Turkish: Biz Kimden Kaçıyorduk Anne?) is a 2023 Turkish crime thriller television series starring Melisa Sözen, Eylül Tumbar and Musa Uzunlar, broadcast on Netflix.
The series is based on a novel with the same name by author Perihan Mağden.[1]
The story is about a mother (unnamed, played by Sözen) and daughter (named "Bambi" like the Disney character, Tumbar) running from a mysterious past.[2][3]
Reception
After its debut, in the 7-day period that ended on April 2, 2023, the show was viewed 35.8 million hours, making it the number 1 non-English language show on Netflix.[4]
The Daily Free Press's review of the series was titled "Too many questions, not enough answers".[5] Polly Conwat of Common Sense Media wrote that it "stretches out the mystery to a near-frustrating point," but was "compelling" and "cinematically shot".[6]
