Tahsin, who has begun to suffer from dementia, tries to prove to his son and granddaughter that he was once a clown. However, his efforts to validate the reality of his memories only lead him to question both himself and his sanity. The discrepancy between the person he believes he remembers and the person others say he was drives Tahsin into an identity crisis. Trapped between the colorful past he thinks he recalls and the grayness of the present, Tahsin begins to question who he truly is-and who he is supposed to be.
