Synopsis

Spoiler shield

Kalender who works at a casting company owned by a relative and occasionally takes on small, non-speaking roles in TV series and films. He dreams of marrying his long-term girlfriend İmge and tries to arrange small roles for people in his neighborhood. Kalender is implicated in a financial crime involving his relative's name and is sent to prison for a short time. In prison, he meets a prisoner named Vefa. Vefa recognizes Kalender from the TV series and films he has appeared in, despite being younger than him; he quickly grows fond of Kalender and takes him under his wing.
