Elmas is in her mid-30s and lives with her two teenage children, Can and Sevgi in Cologne. For a single mother, her children are more important than anything else, she is ready to do anything for them. She has a tense relationship with her father, the old man has been living alone since retirement and the death of his wife, drinks a lot of raki and rarely sees his grandchildren. Can finds out why the relationship is so tense when his best friend Stefan gives him a special gift for his 16th birthday: a visit to a small brothel run by pimp Klaus. But instead of his defloration, he experiences a shock: Suddenly his mother, who works as a prostitute, faces him. Suddenly his whole, intact world is destroyed, he loses interest in everything, at school, the band founded with Stefan. He also doesn't want to live with his mother anymore and moves with his sister to the grandfather, who is a bit irritated but also happy about the visit of the grandchildren. Meanwhile, Elmas begins to change her life, leaves the brothel, looks for temporary jobs (including as a cleaning lady in a church) and hopes that her son will forgive her.
