Storyline:
One wrong delivery... One shot at a dream... And too many people chasing the same box.
Ayakçı tells the story of Hayri, a hard-working delivery man and devoted father of two. He spends his days running from address to address, but dreams of something bigger: opening his own luxury shop, like the millionaires he delivers to.
Then, fate intervenes.
After an accident lands him in the hospital, a stranger mistakes him for someone else and hands him an illegal package with instructions to deliver it to Bursa—for a cash reward. Desperate to escape his rut, Hayri takes the risk.
What follows is a chaotic, action-packed road trip as Hayri teams up with Serkan, an unpredictable and oddly charming companion he meets on the way. Together, they’re chased by shady criminals, outsmarting them with luck, wit, and barely-held-together plans.
Part buddy comedy, part personal growth story, Ayakçı is about how far one man will go to chase a dream—even if it means getting in way over his head.
