In a Turkish village, five orphaned sisters are kept under strict lock and key by their aunt and uncle after an entirely innocent encounter with a group of boys. As marriages start being arranged, the sisters, driven by the same desire for freedom, rebel against the limitations imposed upon them.
One of the most successful debuts of recent time, Deniz Gamze Ergüven’s empowering, feminist tale of five tenacious sisters’ quest for freedom is intelligently personal and political—a new coming-of-age classic that explores the tension between tradition and progress amindst patriarchal oppression.
