Overview
Sevda Erses is a singer who has devoted herself to Turkish classical music and strives to be principled in her work. She is careful not to go beyond professional relationships with her boss and listeners, which is why her career has stagnated. As part of her Anatolian tour with a company, Erses also gives concerts in a small town. The singer not only receives great interest from the local people but also unintentionally captivates the town's leader. However, her heart belongs to an engineer she met in the same town.
