Synopsis

Five years after the events of the first film, Guner Sernikli is a government official who, with his wife Aysel and their wheelchair-bound daughter Tuba, has been assigned as the head librarian to Crazy Emin's village, even though there is no library. The family is welcomed by the Mayor and the other villagers while Emin becomes smitten with Tuba. However, they have to deal with the political violence engulfing the town's youth, which they resolve by setting up the library and digging up the TV set from the first film for visitors to use. After a few months of calm however, the 1980 Turkish coup d'état occurs, with Emin initially mistaking the announcement of the coup as a war movie. Soldiers arrive and arrest the town's men for alleged subversion but later release them all except for Guner and a few others. Guner's family moves out and Tuba shares a sorrowful parting with Emin.

The story is based on the memories of writer-director Yılmaz Erdoğan of the last summer of his childhood in Hakkâri, Turkey in 1980.
