Synopsis

Baby Boy

The story of Jody, a misguided, 20-year-old African-American who is really just a baby boy finally forced-kicking and screaming to face the commitments of real life. Streetwise and jobless, he has not only fathered two children by two different women-Yvette and Peanut but still lives with his own mother. He can't seem to strike a balance or find direction in his chaotic life.

Persecution

Ayla is a conservatory student. Through a coincidence, she meets Tarık, a famous composer. They fall in love and soon become engaged. On a trip abroad, Tarık experiences one of Ayla's biggest traumas. This disaster will affect the fate of the duo in a bad way.
