The first Television (or called Visiontele by the citizens) arrives and the chaos begins. Some people are excited and some are afraid of this new device which can show us live pictures from different places. Is it devils easy prey to catch us or is it just a feature of the modern time? Without losing time, the mayor (Altan Erkekli) of the town Hakkari tries to find some people who can help him to set up the signal receiver on the highest position of themountain. His team consists of one crazy electrician called Emin (Yilmaz Erdogan) and some mayor office staff members; however none of them has any knowledge of TVs.
