SYNOPSIS

Ahmet desperately wants a girlfriend, but he is considered to be inadequate. This lack of machismo is re-enforced by his father, a dominating patriarchal figure, and his gung-ho, laddish friends. Only by going through the Turkish Cypriot teenage tradition of losing his virginity to a sex worker, does Ahmet gain the right to become a man and win the heart of the girl he desires.
