The film tells the story of police chief Şahin, who fights relentlessly against criminals. Şahin and his friend Turgut are assigned to gather evidence about a global crime syndicate. Haşmet and Denisos are the leaders of this crime syndicate. Şahin gathers a lot of evidence that reveals the true nature of Haşmet, who plays the role of a philanthropic businessman in his normal life. However, the organization sets a trap for the two police officers just as the truth is about to come to light. Turgut loses his hands, while Şahin loses his eyesight. Both friends become disillusioned with life. Şahin's girlfriend Lale helps him cling to life. Şahin begins preparing for revenge.
