1001 Nights

This series is an adaptation of the original story "One Thousand and One Nights", a collection of Middle Eastern folk tales. The story unfolds across three different times and locations: present-day Tehran, modern Istanbul, and a mystical, ancient world known as "The Other World," a parallel realm deeply intertwined with the current time. These worlds influence each other in unexpected and mysterious ways. The story begins in Tehran, where a string of disappearances has shaken the city-each case involving women.

Directed by —, 1001 Nights leans on a strong ensemble — Parviz Parastouei, Mohsen Kiaei, Sahar Dolatshahi — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The series landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 2025.
