Derya, a solitary woman in her late seventies, lives quietly in a small home surrounded by a garden and woods. She tends to her flowers, prepares simple meals, cares for her grandchildren, and practices a private form of Sufi devotion. Fiercely independent, she resists the technology her daughter insists she learn. While navigating the unfamiliar internet, Derya accidentally enters a chat room dedicated to Sufism. Under the anonymous name “Rumi,” she begins speaking with three younger men about poetry, divine love, and spiritual practice. Hidden behind this identity, Derya finds the intellectual connection and sense of belonging she has been missing. When the group arranges to meet in person, Derya hopes to find acceptance beyond the limitations of her age and gender. When the men discover who she is, they dismiss her. Determined to prove herself, she enters their circle and joins their chanting, becoming swept up in an increasingly ecstatic spiritual experience. Meanwhile, Derya has left her grandchildren at home, believing she will only be gone briefly. As the hours pass, the children are left alone, and their cries echoing.
