The movie is about a drama that unfolds because of a clause in the penal code. Naciye is raped by a group of men. Since Naciye is a prostitute, the defendants are tried under Article 438.

Campaigns are launched for the repeal of the article. However, Naciye was forgotten in this process. She was first fired from her job when news about her having a passport appeared in the press.
