    • Emre is a 29-year-old geography teacher waiting to be assigned to a government teaching job. Preparing for years for an exam he can’t seem to pass, he goes through security training and becomes a guard through the help and direction of his family. He first works at a bank, but when the bank is displeased with his work, the security company sends him to an empty plaza unused for years. He is forced to pass the time for 12 hours in this 27-floor plaza in the middle of Istanbul where there’s nobody but him. In this empty Plaza, Emre will find himself entangled in unexpected events and a complicated love affair.
