Description

Ziya Bey has six
months left to live. From his mansion on Farewell Fountain Street, the
Ottoman aristocrat plans to tie up some questionable business affairs and say
goodbye to the people he cherishes. He hires Artvin, a disillusioned professor
with a troubled past, to assist him. Intrigued by his employer's mysterious
household, Artvin spends the days uncovering Ziya Bey's turbulent life
story. The two men become
bound together as they reveal dark elements from their pasts. But when Ziya Bey
releases Artvin from his duties sooner than expected, Artvin inherits a spiral
of violence he cannot control.

In this gripping
ride through the streets of Istanbul, two men learn one another's secrets. But
can either of them learn to live with themselves?
