A young girl loses a precious book she has borrowed from her teacher. The girl, unable to remember where and how she lost the book, is driven into depression, and taken to a psychiatrist by her best friend. As the psychiatrist helps the girl find the bag through hypnosis, she unexpectedly comes across a strange man in the hypnosis world. The door to mysterious events is pushed ajar with the mysterious man encountered during hypnosis, and an thrilling chase starts in the real world. Forgotten mysterious people and events will surface as the story enters the realms of traditional Turkish fairy-tales and the world of hypnosis.

The film drew me in with it's complex and thought-provoking storyline. I especially liked the director's attempt to use the Arabian Nights' and Rumi's tales' narrative structure in constructing the story. His choice of using traditional Turkish puppeteering art for the animation sequences was dead on. It was a real treat to watch. I absolutely loved the soundtrack. One complaint would be with the acting of the main doctor character, but considering this is the director's first feature film, it is a flaw I easily overlook in light of the movies other many strengths.
