Description:

In the year of 1915, against the backdrop of WWI, we are introduced to the lives of Mehmet and Ali, two Turkish immigrants residing in Australia who have built a modest existence through their ice cream business. As news of the Gallipoli campaign reaches them, these determined men decide to join their countrymen in combat, inspired by the fierce spirit of patriotism that has engulfed the world. However, the unforeseen obstacle of being denied passage from Australia due to military restrictions forces an impromptu change of plans. Rather than surrendering, Mehmet and Ali devise a novel approach - they will defend their adopted homeland from any potential threats while simultaneously fighting for Turkey's victory in Gallipoli. Their unwavering commitment to both countries embodies the universal themes of courage, resilience, and loyalty in an unexpected setting, offering audiences a heartfelt exploration of identity, sacrifice, and unity against all odds.
