When Sengül Güvercile was 14 years old, her secret boyfriend was killed by her family, because the relationship outraged the family honour. In this do-cumentary Sengül makes a journey back to Turkey to confront her father with his actions. She hasn't seen him since he was sentenced 16 years of prison for the killing and afterwards deported from Denmark. Through her jour-ney, we get the horrifying story about the brutally slaughtering of her first and forbidden love. Its a heartbreaking story about a family from a small and poor village in Eastern Turkey, who settles down in Denmark in 1976 but maintain very old Turkish traditions. The story is told by Sengül herself and her younger brother, Erkan, who was chosen to do the killing, because he was only 13 at the time, and to young to go to prison. Through Erkan we get the story of a child, who for the first time feels his fathers love and that he ac-tually means something, when he agrees to take the gun ordered by his fa-ther. He shoots but can't fulfil the mission. Finally Sengül finds her father in Turkey and confronts him directly with the misery he has caused in her life. But afterall her father is also a victim of an ancient culture. And Sengül real-izes that she has to forgive him to move on in her own life.
