Revenge is a dish best served cold and ‘The Lady’ narrates the story of an oppressed woman hunting down those responsible for her loss to regain her self-worth through cathartic retribution.  

ifilm website puts the synopsis as, “A mysterious man calling himself the Steward shows up in town with money from an anonymous donor whom he calls the Lady to buy a garden and turn it into a charitable hospital. It turns out the garden the Lady has in mind was the property of a man who has been dead for 20 years – a man who was her husband.

The lady was banished and driven out of town all those years ago for allegedly driving her husband to commit suicide. Now she is back and she wants revenge against those that she says unjustly ruined her life and deprived her of being with her son, who does not even know that she is alive.”

The cast list of the series includes Siavash Tahmoures, Kaveh Khoda-Shenas, Fariba Kosari, Sareh Bayat, Zahra Saeedi and Daryoush Arjmand.

‘The Lady, produced in 2008, will be replaced by ‘The Warped Interpretation of a Dream’ made by Kazem Masoumi.
