Synopsis

Filiz, a young, working mother, is quietly struggling within the stifling boundaries of postpartum depression. Trapped within a life and a modern urban society that constantly seeks to confine her identity solely to motherhood, Filiz desperately searches for a space to breathe. Her quest begins with a simple dream: buying "a car of her own" to regain her mobility and autonomy. Her search unexpectedly leads her to Şule, another woman navigating her own silent battles against domestic control. What follows is a beautifully observant, unglamorous exploration of isolation, rebellion against patriarchal ownership, and the profound, transformative power of unexpected female solidarity.
