Against the odds, Mutlu survived, but with life-changing injuries and a bullet in her brain. Still recovering, Mutlu cannot escape the reality of escalating attacks against Turkish women: her carer & sister Dilek is killed by her boyfriend, and a neighbour is murdered by her fiance. Despite her disability, Mutlu relentlessly pursues justice for her sister, supported by her ever loyal family: mother Hanim, elder sister Songul & brother Hakan.

In this context, Rachel (Barbezat) M’Bon, a Swiss-Congolese journalist, begins her own quest for identity. On her way to emancipation, she questions her past, her present and holds up a mirror to her country and her peers.
