## Description

Each summer three siblings visit their bitter grandmother in her dreary seaside home. Faruk, the eldest, is alcoholic, divorced and a drift. Metin, the youngest, dreams of escaping to America. In between is their sister, Nilgun, a fiery revolutionary, hurtling towards womanhood. Over the week, the family face first love, old ghosts and childhood memories. Watching them is the dwarf house keeper Recep, who has stories of his own.
