Plot

She on the other hand considers her parents somewhat square and has her own plans. She is dedicated to Kung Fu. As a martial arts adept she receives recognition for doing something she enjoys.

Her family and her would-be in-laws resent her commitment for an exotic contact sport which regularly includes combat with men. All of them are worried about her neglecting school and getting a shady reputation.

When she falls in love with a young fighter named Emil the chances for her marriage with the man of her family's choice start to fade away.

Still her kin hasn't given in. There is Omar, a friend of the family, who is even more traditional than all the others, joins her club. He challenges her, intending to prove that her training is a waste of time. Ayşe has to stand up against him.
