No matter what he did, no matter how selflessly he served his country, and even if he were to be remembered for founding or saving that nation, history would be the one to pass the final judgment. He would either become a name gradually fading into the forgetful memory of history, or he would shine like a precious jewel engraved in history’s steel vault. History would be the ultimate judge. Years passed, and Turkey came to know pluralistic democracy, military coups, economic upheavals, technology, the world, and modernization. But it never gave up on him.
Şefik, a successful soldier, is one of the leading figures of the Committee of Union and Progress. When Abdulhamid II declares a constitutional monarchy, Şefik and his friends go to Istanbul.
The movie takes place in the kitchen of Cankaya Mansion on Sunday night, October 28, 1923, a day before the proclamation of the establishment of the Republic of Turkey and formally marking the end of the Ottoman Empire.
