The story of a young man who goes to the mountains to take revenge on a landlord. Karalar Mehmet lives with his mother and sister Melek. Like the other villagers, they work for Halim Ağa. Mehmet and Halim's daughter Kına are in love with each other. One day, when Mehmet's shirt tears, Kına mends it. Upon hearing this, the villagers sing a song about it. Halim Ağa and his sons, believing that Mehmet has dishonored them, torment him. When the police intervene, Halim Ağa accuses Mehmet of theft. The police arrest Mehmet. Unable to control his anger, Halim Ağa's son Ali burns down Mehmet's house and tries to rape Melek. Melek commits suicide to escape Ali. As Mehmet is being taken away by the police, the bandit Kara Hacı rescues him. When Mehmet returns to his village, he sees that Melek is dead. Upon this, Mehmet goes to the mountains to take revenge on Halim Ağa and joins Kara Hacı's gang.
