1981 80 min Turkish
Wubly rating 6.1 IMDb rating 5.8

“Honor became his trap. Love became his refuge.”

After his father took the fall for a local landowner's crime and was executed, Ferdi (Ferdi Tayfur) is raised alongside the landowner's children as one of their own. Years later, he completes his education as an Agricultural Engineer and falls deeply in love with his daughter, Cemile (Oya Aydoğan). However, Cemile’s malicious and jealous brother, Davut (Sümer Tilmaç), continuously holds the family's charity over Ferdi's head. Out of a heavy sense of debt to the family, Ferdi takes the blame when Davut commits a murder and serves a prison sentence. Upon his release, Ferdi reunites with Cemile to build a peaceful life, but Davut’s relentless cruelty and a second framed crime force the couple onto the run—turning their devotion into a heartbreaking fight for survival in self-imposed exile.
