Set after World War II, this biographical drama centers on Turkish writer Rifat Ilgaz (Tarik Akan), who is forced into internal exile because the government suspects him of being a communist. The film largely follows his life on the lam and his reunion with his wife, whose patience wears thin under the restrictions that hiding him imposes on her. Eventually he turns himself in, and while in prison he suffers torture, yet he endures with his spirit unbroken.
