There, the gentle help of nurse Ayla helps him recover from the nightmares of his haunted past. Rewarded with a Medal of Honour and some money, Hakan is discharged. Upon arriving at his deserted apartment, memories of a broken family flood his heart. The quest for his beloved daughter, Melis, confronts him with the wrongs of his horrifying past and he wanders the streets of Istanbul. An unexpected visit from Ayla sparks off his journey to find Sinan, his ex-companion. Will this encounter help Hakan to finally get a grip on his troubled life?[/vc_column_text][/vc_column][vc_column column_padding=”no-extra-padding” column_padding_position=”all” background_color_opacity=”1″ background_hover_color_opacity=”1″ width=”1/3″][vc_text_separator title=”FESTIVALS”]
