Hakkı, a university student earning his keep through Drag Queen performances in Istanbul, is jolted one night by the news of his mother’s passing. Concealing his sexual orientation from all but his late mother, he returns to the family home after three years, confronting the weighty expectations of being the only male offspring and his relatives’ ignorance.
