About the film

What it’s about

Ferman works as a hitman for a covert agency, tasked with eliminating former operatives. During one assignment, he meets Saye and, against every rule, lets her live. He brings her into the organisation instead of silencing her. That choice locks them both into a course from which there is no turning back.

What hooks you

Çağatay Ulusoy and Elçin Sangu play the leads in this action drama from director Can Ulkay. The film runs 123 minutes and combines action, drama, and thriller elements. It was produced in Türkiye in 2025.

Who it’s for

It suits viewers who like stories where a professional killer's discipline cracks under an unexpected emotional pull, and who enjoy action that grows out of a single fateful decision. It also suits those drawn to dramas about secret agencies and the personal costs of loyalty.
