Ali is an elderly Turkish widower living in Hamburg and plagued by loneliness. He offers to pay prostitute Yetar to live with him, but their relationship soon runs into trouble. When Yetar dies, Ali's son Nejat travels back to Turkey in an effort to track down her missing daughter, Ayten. But Ayten can't be traced, as she is now a political activist who is fleeing arrest in Turkey by illegally entering Germany.
