Cahit is a German Turk at his late 30's. He has given up with his life after
his beloved wife's death, and he's living a miserable life right in the core of
cocaine and excessive drinking. One night, he semi-intentionally crashes into a
wall, and barely survives. At the hospital he's taken to, he meets a girl, Sibel,
another German Turk who's tried to commit suicide. She's sick and tired of her family's
ultra-traditional issues, and asks Cahit to carry out a white marriage with her out of
the blue, so that she can become a married woman and get rid of her family's revolting
in this plan. As Sibel tells him straightaway that she's interested in absolute freedom
involving other men and he agrees, they live as roommates with separate private lives
for a while. Then things take a different turn, and they're no longer two indifferent
roommates. But their love story won't be anywhere as simple as any other...
