Mithat Bey has succeeded in protecting his collections, accumulated over the years, against all kinds of risks. Every item he looks for to ensure the continuity of his collection takes Mithat Bey to different corners of Istanbul. While for Mithat Bey Istanbul is as boundless as his collection, for Ali it consists only of the area surrounding the building of which he is the concierge. When the residents, worried about an eventual earthquake, decide to have the building demolished, the two men’s struggle begins; Mithat Bey to save his collections and Ali to safeguard his life.
