Narrative Synopsis
Cemal and Süleyman are two good friends living in a small village near Antakya in the Çukurova region in the 1970s. Their biggest commonality is that instead of playing ordinary neighborhood games, they are drawn to new adventures. To prove themselves to the other kids in the neighborhood, they embark on a journey that requires courage. They set their sights on photographing Yılmaz Güney, who is in Adana filming his movie "Endişe" (Anxiety)! These two young friends, traveling on foot and with a stolen camera in hand, continue their journey through the valleys between Antakya and Adana, meeting new people along the way. As their paths cross with new lives and faces, their adventures take on a new dimension.
