Before hazelnuts, the villagers of Çiçekpınar lived in a self-sufficient, cooperative, communal social structure. After hazelnuts, however, the community transitioned to a social structure where everyone was responsible for their own work and organized hierarchically. The documentary that tells the story of the transition from a miniature pre-capitalist society to capitalism, exploring how the children of the former laborers, now "bosses," treat their seasonal workers and many other situations.
