Chief Mamishov is the head of the housing and utilities department. At first glance, he seems to be a businesslike and attentive person. He always responds to any complaints from residents, but he has one bad habit—smoking. As a result, he stashes packs of Kazbek cigarettes in his desk until an inspection from a higher authority comes along and several violations are discovered, one of which is his indifference to a complaint. Overall, the film is dedicated to the bureaucrats and officials of some housing and utilities companies, who are criticized by everyone for their heartless attitude towards the needs of workers.

Childhood friends Ahmet and Nuri, the sons of poor farmers, grew up together, studied together, and worked together in a factory. Together, they publish the magazine Light, which opposes the colonial policies of foreign capital and military pacts.

Meanwhile, Ahmet, having become one of the main enemies of the reactionaries, attracts more and more patriots to his side.
