Synopsis
This May seems to be hotter than the previous years. Still, everyone seems to be happy despite their small worries. But this happiness is soon disturbed by the arrival of Muzaffer who decided to shoot a film in his childhood town. His father, Emin, is bent on saving the small forest on his property from the authorities. His nephew, Ali, wants a musical watch, and according to an agreement made with his aunt he has to carry an egg in his pocket for 40 days without cracking it. Finally, his cousin, Saffet, is a young town dweller who seems doomed to failure, and who dreams of going to Istanbul.
