Synopsis

[edit]

Mrs. Olcay, an elderly piano teacher residing in an ancient mansion, faces loneliness in a rapidly changing Istanbul. Her husband, a naval officer, passed away years ago, and her daughter remains distant. Her only companions are veteran steamboat captain Necip, her young student Canan, and her cat, Hanım. When Mrs. Olcay learns that she has uterine cancer, the fear of imminent death grips her. Yet, her greatest concern lies in Hanım's fate after her passing. As she seeks a new owner for her beloved cat, she witnesses the apathy of those around her.
