After giving birth, painter Funda put her career on hold to focus on her child. Ready to return to painting, she finally finds the nanny she has been searching for: Nazlı. But the mysterious and increasingly unsettling woman soon begins to disrupt the seemingly peaceful lives of Funda and her husband İlker. What begins as a simple employment arrangement develops into a dangerous psychological game in which desire, secrets and loyalty are put to the test.
