SYNOPSIS

Following a separation from the father of her young son, Ayşe battles to empower her sense of independence as a middle-aged divorcee with dreams of being a singer. Grappling with community expectations, the pitfalls of exposing your vulnerability through art, and her insecurity about her qualities as a mother.
