Synopsis

Ayla, a young Turkish-German woman, is beautiful, self-confident and at odds with her conservative family, who disapprove of her "Western" lifestyle. She falls in love with Ayhan, but doesn't suspect his involvement in a murderous plan to restore his family's honor: his sister Hatice has left her unloved husband in Turkey and is raising her daughter alone in Germany. Pursued by thugs hired by her own family, Hatice finds refuge with Ayla, who once also fought for her freedom.
