Synopsis

In the enthusiasm of victory, the streets of Izmir are moaning with the voices of "Long live the Gazi, Long live the Army, Long live the Grand National Assembly". Latife Hanım's admiration for Mustafa Kemal is increasing day by day, whose house in Izmir is used as the Headquarters of the Commander-in-Chief. Meanwhile, Zübeyde Hanım wants to meet this young woman from İzmir who is interested in her son. Latife Hanım insists on hosting Mustafa Kemal's mother, who will come to Izmir, at her home. Fikriye Hanım, who takes care of Zübeyde Hanım in Çankaya Mansion and the little Abdürrahim whom Mustafa Kemal adopted while on the Eastern Front, is getting worse, but she tries not to show it to Mustafa Kemal, whom she loves to death. Fikriye, who had a coughing fit while playing the piano at a friends meeting at the Çankaya Mansion, was sent to a sanatorium in Munich against her will. While all this is going on, the war against the invaders continues at full speed.
