Adem works as a postman in one of the suburbs of Istanbul and lives in an old house with his elderly mother. He wants to marry a girl named Sevtap.

In order to get married, Sevtap informs her brother and asks for permission.^[4] However, the reply by telegram is negative. A cunning thing comes to Adem's mind and tells Sevtap to read the telegram differently to her father. Thereupon, he informs his father that his brother gave permission. Thus, they begin the preparations for the wedding. But unexpectedly, his older brother Latif takes leave in Turkey and the lie is revealed.^[5] After that, everything gets mixed up.
