Kudret is a young man who earns his living performing stunts on a motorcycle. He wants to marry Emel, but standing between them is Emel's mother, Selma. Determined to prevent the marriage, Selma conspires with Cihangir, a wealthy businessman she wants her daughter to marry, and Kudret is sent to prison for a crime he did not commit. From then on, events unfold in a manner reminiscent of The Count of Monte Cristo. Kudret plans an escape with a fellow inmate he has befriended behind bars. During this time, he learns the location of a large fortune from his friend. However, during the escape, Kudret loses his friend. Betrayed, slandered, and with his pride shattered, Kudret returns to seek revenge.
