Ahmet Erkut

The film tells the tragicomic story of Burhan, who lives with his elderly sister Nebahat and spends his time losing money gambling. It takes place in an atmosphere where fake identities abound and swindlers who have been swindled themselves attempt to walk a tightrope. In this environment, which resembles a masked ball, the film's protagonists are trying to "outwit the devil."

Centered around a personally troubled, officially discredited police chief and his inharmonious police team in Ankara Police Force. Even though the show usually focuses on murders and other crimes that happens on a weekly basis, the undertone of the story leads to an eventual duel between Behzat Ç. and the rotten department officials and bureaucrats.
