synopsis
In Istanbul, the oldest brother of a family of orphans throws his weight around as if he were the head of the family's clan village. If he demonstrated that he had the best interests of family members at heart, his bullying would not be so distressing, but it is clear that he is out to make as much money as possible. Indeed, in order to make enough money for a vending truck, he makes a lucrative deal for a younger sister to be married. This results in some mayhem and tragedy. When he tries to pull the same stunt on an even younger sister, their older sister puts her foot down.
