Doctor Kemal is head of a private hospital, is ambitious and has the best intentions for the residents of Istanbul. He is the best candidate for mayor of the Beyoglu district – in his opinion. An opinion not shared by his sceptical ex-wife; nor by the voters who come to eat and drink at his expense; nor the party leader, who even after several meetings still thinks hes an architect rather than a doctor; not even his faithful chauffeur. The slogan the doctor has the cure might be catchy, but the doctor has little clue how sick the climate of political nepotism really is.
