Plot

The story of a man who learns that his friend, whom he loves more than his life, is the enemy he was looking for to kill.

Sinekatalog’s take

A man discovers that the friend he loves like a brother is the very enemy he has been hunting, in a melodrama of loyalty versus vengeance. The premise is strong and the tone is classic Yeşilçam pathos. Likely to please fans of old-style Turkish tearjerkers.Sinekatalog’s own editorial review – not a user or critic quote.
