While Semra and President Ahi are reading their local newspapers at the Boğaz Körler Derneği (Boğaz Blind Association), an interesting development takes place that will change their lives. The ministry has sent a fax announcing its intention to participate in the Chinese Paralympics. This fax causes quite a stir among the association members. While jokes about choosing sports like oil wrestling and weightlifting continue, Zeki, who has grown up with the help of the association members, utters the word "football" with the desire to be like the sighted children constantly running around with a ball, which seriousness the topic. The proposal is "Rattling Ball," or in other words, a football team for the blind.

Guner Sernikli is a government official who, with his wife and their wheelchair bound daughter, has been assigned as the head librarian to this isolated province, virtually an exile since there is no library in the village. The family is warmly welcome, but these are the years of political anarchy and leftist/rightist clashes in big cities and the youth of the village inevitably follow the tides. They arrive in Vizontele, just as the situation is becoming really absurd. Guner brings wisdom; his daughter Tuba brings beauty, innocence and love. Some like the Mayor, Nazmi Dogan and crazy Emin appreciate these things but they are in the minority and confusion continues to reign. The story is based on the memories of writer-director Yılmaz Erdoğan of the last summer of his childhood in Hakkâri, Turkey in 1980.
