Talented, hunky swimmer, motivated apprentice, and cool buddy Beyto appears to have a bright future ahead of him. But when the only son of a Turkish migrant family falls in love with his coach, Mike, an ideal world falls to pieces. Ashamed and in shock, his parents only see one way out: Beyto must marry in order to save face and tradition. They lure him to their home village and plan his wedding with Seher, his childhood friend. Suddenly, Beyto finds himself in a disruptive love triangle. How can he get back to Mike without destroying Seher’s future? Beyto is a subtle, summerly sensuous love story about three young people caught in a situation none of them wanted, yet they all share.
