Synopsis
Mother Selma is a medical doctor at the public hospital. Baba Sinan is a mid-level manager in a private company. An unhappy couple who have lost their tolerance for each other. The only common point between the two is Umut, their 17-year-old water polo player son. Umut's balanced life is radically shaken by a rumor that he is gay. Umut refuses to answer the judgmental questions of the team members. It sharpens judgments about his determined demeanor. In a short time things get out of hand and turn into a ruthless lick. When things become unbearable, Umut disappears. Selma and Sinan become aware of the tyranny that Umut has been living when their son disappears. While desperate for their children, they also settle accounts with themselves.
