The friendship between Sami, Joe, and Leyla seems almost inseparable. They spend every day together, wandering the streets or discovering new places in their city. The end of their school year was supposed to mark the beginning of an exciting summer, but these adventurous teenagers find themselves faced with life-changing decisions. Sami struggles under her parents' strict parenting methods, Joe is forced to take care of her siblings every day, and Leyla is anxious to start her apprenticeship in a kitchen. Questions of their future and difficult decisions are looming over them. In a time coined by numerous changes, their friendship stands out as the only constant. However, this bond is put to a severe test when their relationship reaches a crucial turning point.
