Fehmi, a 19-year-old aspiring rapper from a rough neighbourhood in Istanbul, is approached by a top recording producer and knows this could be his big break.

When he meets Devin, a 25-year-old affluent DJ, they fall in love for each other and find the inspiration they were both lacking. The flaming love affair of this unlikely duo soon becomes toxic as Fehmi finds it harder and harder to control his addiction to bonzai, a cheap synthetic drug. The film is an emotional rollercoaster into the lives of Istanbul’s youth, steeped in edgy rap composed by one of the most acclaimed beatmakers and rappers in Turkey, Da Poet.
