The award-winning masterpiece KUMA introduces us to the microcosm of a Turkish family in Vienna and their issues with tradition and modern times, family loyalty and individual freedom.
Ayşe’s wedding. Almost all of the guests think, she got married to Hasan, close to her in age. Indeed she’s been called to Vienna as second wife for Hasan’s father. The family’s children greet her with frosty contempt. Only Fatma, Mustafa’s fatally ill faithful wife is genuinely happy about Ayşe’s arrival – as she knows her husband in good hands with the new second wife. These fundamentally different two women develop a special relationship, which is being put to a severe test quite soon.

Sensitively directed, the film is a complex psychograph of a family.
