Unless he is ruthless with himself, a wise man can have no pride. Muharrem lives in a small apartment in Ankara. He doesn`t have many friends. He is angry with life and those around him. The only communication he has is with the woman who looks after the elderly man downstairs. For her, Muharrem`s apartment is initially a heaven where she can confide in him her troubles. But what does she represent for our antihero? Does he actually enjoy her friendship, or does he enjoy his influence over her and perhaps feed on her emotional weaknesses? The film based on Fyodor Dostoyevsky`s Notes From Underground.
