Bekir’s beloved grandfather passes away. Bekir, in order for him not to be upset, is told that “his grandfather has gone to the moon and become a moon grandpa”. Bekir starts to dream that he flies to the moon with a bicycle as in the movie Turkish E.T. film ‘Badi’. All he wants is to buy a bicycle and go the moon to see his grandfather again. His mother Rabia and her sister get into a hot dispute over the inheritance. The platonic love she has makes everything harder for Rabia.
