Erkan and Murat want to give their close friend İbo’s younger brother Burak a little fun, a little joy, a little night club time before seeing him off to the military service the next morning. As night falls on the city, the four friends cram into a brand new modified, illuminated, turbocharged Falcon model car and set off on an adventure. But as the hours pass, the problems between them gradually surface and the levels of aggression, toxicity and arguments increase. Like most young men from the suburbs, the anger, complex, trauma and shame they keep inside will gradually bubble up, spread around, and to vent out, they will turn to each other, it will be obvious with the bitter truth that the turbo engine is not the only thing ready to explode.

This film was a Meetings on the Bridge participant.
