It is the dog days of summer in a Kurdish city in Turkey. On their way to school, two unruly brothers from a poor neighbourhood pass a luxury property with a swimming pool. They really want to dive into it. With every day their desire to plunge into the pool grows, ultimately becoming a matter of life and death. They are separated from the pool by a high wall with barbed wire and security guards. They come up with successive ways of overcoming these obstacles, but none of their plans work. Desperate, they almost give up because they now have a plastic pool, but it's simply not good enough. Why can white men plunge into a real swimming pool and they have to content themselves with a fake plastic one? They start their own class war. A work in progress that won an award at the Film Forum in Antalya turned into a film with phenomenal roles of the two brothers fighting for the right to plunge into a swimming pool.
