Narrative Synopsis

Mustafa lost his mother and father on the same day. His father abandoned them for a dancer, and his mother committed suicide that day. The little boy was suddenly left all alone.

His grandfather tells Mustafa that his father is dead. In reality, his father had committed murder because of the woman he had abandoned his family for and had been sent to prison. Mustafa learns this truth twenty years later. His old anger is reignited. He goes to Istanbul to find his father. But he doesn't even know who he is looking for. The only thing he can cling to in the corrupt world he has fallen into is love.
