Retired taxi driver Faruk is still working into his 60s. Having lost his wife ten years earlier, he leads a monotonous life. His only wish is to learn English, for which he is sometimes ridiculed and sometimes appreciated. His life will change a lot as he meets people throughout that difficult process, as learning a new language brings new experiences.
