Çukur, one of the most dangerous neighborhoods of Istanbul, is ruled by the Koçovalı family. A family closely related to crime, but with their own rules, customs, and habits. The head of the family is İdrız Koçovalı. Besides his illegal jobs, İdrız takes care and helps everybody around, considering all of them as a family. Being a father figure, with huge respect to him, locals live by the motto - "Çukur is our home, İdrız is our father!" (Çukur evimiz, İdrız babamız!).
