Synopsis

In Istanbul, Turkey, tradition and modern culture collide in the lives of three gay men. Acclaimed German photographer Daniel comes to the city seeking renewed inspiration. Flamboyant male belly dancer Can only circulates at night in order to avoid the authorities who are looking for him for dodging his obligation to the national army. And his friend Ahmet leaves the countryside to escape his oppressively conservative family. As each of these men butt up against the traditional values of Istanbul, they struggle to be free of tradition, of religion, and ultimately, of oneself.
