Bizimkiler (Ours, Our People) was a Turkish drama, represented the lives of the people shared the same neighborhood. It is one of the longest-running series in Turkish television drama history.

During the years when World War I began to turn the Ottoman Empire's territories into a war zone, the pain of a great love story that unfolded in southeastern Anatolia and present-day Syria burned as fiercely as the war itself in the hearts of those involved. Mahmut leaves his home, abandoning everything—including the person he loves—because he refuses to commit murder. After being caught up in the relentless war raging across Anatolian lands and fighting for years in the struggle for liberation, he sets out to return home. His sole desire is to reunite with the one he was forced to leave behind and to seek revenge for the injustice he suffered years ago.

Sevda Erses is a singer who has devoted herself to Turkish classical music and strives to be principled in her work. She is careful not to go beyond professional relationships with her boss and listeners, which is why her career has stagnated. As part of her Anatolian tour with a company, Erses also gives concerts in a small town. The singer not only receives great interest from the local people but also unintentionally captivates the town's leader. However, her heart belongs to an engineer she met in the same town.
