 Synopsis

Carpet salesman Arif (Cem Yilmaz) not only made friends with his heroic acts on the planet G.O.R.A. With those friends have come numerous enemies and this time he clearly feels their wrath: he is beamed to the stone age in a time machine.  
 
Here too Arif quickly mingles with the crowd, thanks to his lofty self-confidence. This encounter has its consequences and the cavemen prematurely meet modern civilization with innovations like open-buffets and water fountains. 
 
Arif quickly makes friends in the stone age, but his sole wish is to return to the present, back to his pregnant wife Ceku (Özge Özberk).  
To do this, he needs nothing less than an ultra fast-moving technological breakthrough to build a working time machine. This means bringing his barbarian contemporaries to the present or even an advanced technological state, in the shortest time possible, by racing them through the ages.  
 
Arif's plan to speed up evolution faces much opposition from the cavemen who have their own ideas about making progress. As a consequence, Arif rapidly faces a series of social challenges that do not quite fit his own vision of the future... 
Following the film success of G.O.R.A., another sparkling comedy alluding to cultural issues from the top Turkish stand-up comedian Cem Yilmaz. In this film, Cem Yilmaz combines societal criticism with a light and witty style, leaving no topic untouched, from talk shows to the petrol crisis and honor killings. Watching this movie will bring you to tears of laughter.
