Under The Roof

This story is a modernized version (presented as a soap opera) of Onat Kutlar’s story “Çatı”. Briefly, a grandmother and a kid want to escape into the rain; however, the mother keeps telling them to not get cold and stay inside. We see some metaphorical examples like the girl drinking water when it is raining outside. Then we see Güleç Osman (Smiley O.) transferring the roof. In Turkish “çatıyı aktarmak” can also mean”to knock down the roof”, which causes a surprise ending.
