The story tells of the transition of a newly married couple named Hakan and Nilay from the world to the world of marriage. Their tandem marriage, which lasted for a year, is about to break down. Hakan and Nilay reach the stage of divorce and go to a therapist named Canan. As Canan examines our couple's marriage, we also become guests in the areas of conflict between today's women and men. However, the therapist forces them to reveal the true reason behind their strained relationship. A long-held family secret has become the final straw. Canan pushes them to the limit, but Hakan and Nilay resist revealing the truth until the very end. The story’s conclusion is one that will leave you speechless.
