Plot

Elif (Ergül Miray Şahin), an idealistic eighteen-year-old girl living in a village, aspires to become a doctor and study at the Istanbul University. With the help of Deniz Aydin, a good-hearted soldier who was on duty in her village at the time, helps her escape with him from her father who wanted to marry her to a man in exchange of money. Deniz immediately falls in love with Elif's pure and strong character. Elif while in Istanbul soon finds out she has to take off her hijab to study in the university.

Deniz continuously looks out for Elif and helps her in every way possible. Elif, initially denying, eventually confesses her love for Deniz. Deniz's wealthy family opposes the hijab-wearing tradition, similar to other Turkish people, and the family immediately despises Elif at first sight.

Against his will, Deniz is engaged to another woman, Sanam. She does everything possible to make Elif's life miserable because she is aware that Deniz only loves Elif.

Elif encounters numerous social prejudices but never gives up. She perseveres in her job and completes her education while refusing to give up on her hijab and her religion.
