Overview
Emrah and Bahar are madly in love with each other, but Emrah's obsessive lover Nazan catches them in bed together. Seeing them like this, Bahar loses all faith in love. In fact, this is all Nazan's fabrication. Emrah was drugged and thrown into the same bed. Bahar falls into a life of vice and becomes a prostitute. Emrah, who is searching for her, spends a lot of money trying to find her. Emrah, whose mental state is deteriorating, goes to the brothel to see the woman he loves and pays the visitation fee to see Bahar. The old Bahar is gone, and in her place is a Bahar who has been through hell. Emrah's condition worsens, and his mother storms the brothel to put an end to it all.
