An agency boat is taking three new crew members to a bulkcarrier named MV Sarmasik (IVY). The ship is aimed to sail to her loading port Egypt to carry goods to Angola. As she is sailing down south the shipowner who was not able to pay salaries to these crew members for quite sometime goes bankrupt. The ship reaches to the Egyptian port. The captain and everyone else on board learns that there is a lien on the ship and they are not allowed to get on land nor call the port. The ship is taken to the anchorage area. Officals tell the captain that as sea safety regulations the least amount of crew members has to stay on the ship. Others can leave. Altogether number of five seamen volunteers to stay on the ship. They all have different stories, their own reasons to stay away from Istanbul for a while. The crew splits into small groups from the very beginning. Small conflicts grow into big fights…
