This is the story of a strange, impossible, inexplicable love between a Turkish woman and a Bulgarian man. Ivan is a pure and romantic young fellow, who gets caught up in the socalled "regeneration process". He is responsible for the official seals, which are required to issue the new identity documents after the forced name changes. The schoolteacher Ayten tries to steal the seals, thinking that this way she can slow down the ethnic genocide. Their unexpected and unusual meeting brings these two characters together and makes them feel close, forcing Ivan to take a fateful decision - he must either "rename" Ayten, or face the consequences if he does not. They gradually overcome their animosity, accept their differences and draw towards each other. But will the people around them accept their choice? Happy endings are a rarity in the Balkans.
