Summary
When Bora, a 14-year-old Turk, hurls a Molotov cocktail at a car during
a police drugs raid he can have no idea of what will
follow. Actions have consequences. Through this one
thoughtless act, Bora is about to irreversibly change not only his own
destiny, but that of several others. The car belongs to an
emergency doctor who has been called out to attend to a woman with
cardiac problems. Caught in the blast, the doctor ends up in a
coma. His brother resolves to find the person who put him there,
at any cost...
