Hakkı lives with his family in a historic Aegean village. He supports them by selling trinkets near the ancient city. Although the region offers business opportunities due to the booming tourist interest, Hakkı fails to capitalize on the trend.

One day, by chance he discovers a historical artefact in his garden and sells it for the price of a car, only to realize that its true value is much higher. Obsessed, he digs tunnels in his garden, hoping to find more, but finds nothing. His obsession turns into madness, he sacrifices his family life and embarks on a dark journey.
