Harun
Doctor Kemal is head of a private hospital, is ambitious and has the best intentions for the residents of Istanbul. He is the best candidate for mayor of the Beyoglu district – in his opinion. An opinion not shared by his sceptical ex-wife; nor by the voters who come to eat and drink at his expense; nor the party leader, who even after several meetings still thinks he's an architect rather than a doctor; not even his faithful chauffeur. The slogan 'the doctor has the cure' might be catchy, but the doctor has little clue how sick the climate of political nepotism really is.
Yusuf
En una azotea de la ciudad turca de Adana, Yusuf pasa el tiempo en el palomar que instaló su difunto padre. Su pájaro favorito se llama Maverdi, una paloma a la que Yusuf ve como a sí mismo en la sociedad: al margen de la violencia y la ignorancia. El joven casi nunca sonríe, y las cosas empeoran con los intentos de su hermano para que se busque un trabajo.
The golds of Saddam, the last booties of the Iraqi war, are smuggled into Turkey by hidden in the cotton. Blind workers are used to pick the gold from the cotton but the smugglers try to prevent any possible thefts by telling the workers that it is rock they are picking from the cotton. They don't know that there's a seeing eye among the blind workers.
