A dark, introspective study of grief and moral reckoning in which a detached man confronts the psychological unraveling triggered by catastrophic loss and guilt.

Ahmet, who had recently lost his wife and little daughter in a traffic accident while he was away with his lover, is a prominent person dealing with "head work". As someone who does not care for anybody and does not knuckle under anything, he moves on quite unaffected. Yet some things start to change in himself and his life without any apparent reason.
