Elif, who settled in Germany after her marriage, is raped by her husband. Unable to withstand the pressure of her husband any longer, the young woman kills him during a fight and is sentenced to six years of heavy punishment. Clinging to life inside, Elif learns German, starts her workshop and changes the general outlook downwards. He establishes a free life for himself, for his environment. Outside the prison, those who want to avenge him are waiting for his relatives. Concentrating on where the real prison in the human body is, the film focuses on the social and family pressure that the character Elif experiences before she enters the prison. He makes an accommodation between the opportunities given to Elif by the conditions of use and the life that awaits her. With the new prison concept created, the perception of heaven in the mind is reversed. The film, which received positive criticism both with its controversial cinematic language, during its release period, was ruthlessly criticized by the Turkish press at that time due to the revelation in its content.
