However, this Communication will not be easy. Clinging to life with technology, Suna sees the world through the camera’s viewfinder rather than her own eyes and constructs stories.

Suna, who loves this idea very much, immediately adapts to her father. This journey from Istanbul to Çanakkale will deeply affect Selim and Suna.
