Middle-aged unmarried loner Nihat works in a hospital canteen. When young colleague Ayse invites him to her house for dinner, he accepts despite the rumours that her husband Necip is in jail for a serious offence. When Nihat sees a wedding photograph, he notices that Ayse's imprisoned husband looks an awful lot like him. The awkward relationship that ensues changes Nihat's life more profoundly than he could ever have foreseen.
