Yabani follows the remarkable journey of Ali, who was abducted as a boy and ended up working for the gang that kidnapped him. After enduring years of hardship, Ali renames himself Yaman and escapes his captors to build a new, better life together with his three friends. Things are not easy for this new family, but they work hard and are able to leave their dark past behind. Through it all, Yaman somehow manages to keep his soul pure and never succumbs to the darkness that surrounds him. Things get complicated when Yaman meets Rüya, a beautiful girl from the rich side of town. Her boyfriend nearly overdosed, and it’s up to Yaman to save him. He delivers Rüya’s boyfriend to his mother, who is a senior physician. Later, after the boyfriend beats up Yaman’s best friend in retaliation for exposing his drug problem to his mother, Yaman goes to his home to take revenge. That is when Yaman realizes that Rüya’s boyfriend is his brother, and he is actually Ali Soysalan, the boy who was kidnapped 15 years ago. Caught between the family he made and the family that was stolen from him, the road ahead is uncertain. Is he Yaman or Ali? As wealthy and influential as his birth parents may be, can they provide the love and support he gets from his street family? And what is Yaman supposed to do about the love growing between him and Rüya? He may not like his biological brother, but can he take his girlfriend?
