Selim Erensoylu is one of Yeşilçam's most prominent handsome young male actors. During a movie shoot, he meets Sevda and falls in love with her. This love results in marriage.
Sevda and Selim have a daughter named Suna. When their daughter is 4 years old, she is diagnosed with autism. In those years, a full definition of autism could not be made yet. Selim, out of desperation, his sense of protecting Sevda and Suna, and most importantly to prevent any harm to his career, places his wife and daughter with his mother who lives in Çanakkale.
Playing the roles of the old rich man in current TV series, Selim puts his work aside with the sudden death of his wife Sevda and begins to take care of his now grown daughter Suna. However, this communication will not be easy.
Clinging to life with technology, Suna sees the world and constructs stories through the camera's viewfinder, rather than her own eyes. Finding this out, Selim decides to go on a journey with his daughter, to tell her the story of her parents and shoot a movie together. Suna, who loves this idea very much, immediately falls in step with her father. This journey from Istanbul to Çanakkale will deeply affect Selim and Suna.
The year is 1918 and Istanbul is under occupation. The Ottoman Empire has lost the First World War and signed the Treaty of Moudros. The population is exhausted and hopeless. While the masses live in poverty and hope for reconstruction, Mustafa Kemal Atatürk assigns the football club "Fenerbahçe" the most important task: to defend the fatherland. Fenerbahçe will fulfil this task with the unifying power of sport and increase the people's hope and faith in victory. Galip, the Fenerbahce captain, undergoes surgery and returns to the team. They play consecutive matches against the occupying forces. This situation disturbs the English captain Bennett, as support for the national resistance begun in Anatolia grows rapidly in Istanbul with the enthusiasm of Fenerbahçe's victories. While the games are being played, Fenerbahçe helps the Mim-Mim Society and its leader Mr. Mehmet in the operation to send weapons and ammunition to Anatolia. Can Galip overcome these difficult tasks despite the difficulties and dangers he encounters? Will he defeat the English in the national sport and become the backbone of the national resistance with his team? And above all, will he succeed in making Fenerbahçe to the Fenerbahçe of the people? Based on historical facts, the film "Zaferin Rengi" (translated: The Colour of Victory) tells the story of the resistance that was written through football. A true success story in the Turkish Republic with the breathtaking duel for the Harrington Cup.
