Synopsis
A carefree, relaxing vacation on the Turkish Riviera is coming to an end for Marco W. and his parents. On the last day, disaster strikes: 17-year-old Marco is arrested for allegedly raping the underage English girl Carolina at a party. Marco W. spends eight months in a Turkish prison under inhumane conditions: crammed in with 30 adult inmates - treated like a serious criminal. Ralf and Martina W. pull out all the stops to help their son. A new lawyer, experts, and the German public are supposed to help. But Marco keeps facing court in Turkey without any results. The Turkish judge and prosecutor obviously do not believe in the innocence of the German teenager.
