    • Synopsis
    • Police Chief Cemil is a man of rules, discipline—and a daughter running out of time. When little Su collapses during her school play rehearsal and is diagnosed with leukemia, her dream of playing Snow White is shattered.

      Desperate to keep her hope alive, Cemil does the unthinkable: he turns his grim police station into a theater. The cast? A jailed prostitute, a washed-up child actor turned dealer, a glue-sniffing street kid, and a local mob boss. With Snow White and the Seven Dwarfs as their unlikely script, rehearsals begin under lock and key—and chaos.

      But the most unexpected twist comes when Cemil himself steps in as the Evil Queen.

      Blending dark humor with heartfelt drama, The Chief Sekspir is a bold tragicomedy about justice, performance, and the absurd lengths a father will go to give his daughter one final standing ovation.
