A mysterious woman, seen for a moment and not realised whether she is real or imagined, will upset Basri's monotonous existence and throw him into a story that takes place outside of time and space: A story set in a world of obsessions, fears and delusions in which he finds himself all alone.

Groom's Block is slang in Turkey for prison sections holding those accused of serious sex crimes. The film's story and characters are drawn from everyday life. In the Groom's Block, the guards and prison governor manipulate tensions, as prisoners push each other to the edge of existence. We experience the tension and paradox of a violent prison and justice systems reflecting the shifting moral norms and structure of Turkish society. The jailed and jailers enforce violent justice daily, expressing in their lives a society confronted with its need to hide from itself, in desperate denial of its cruel contradictions.
