Memed, My Hawk

[2] Memed, a young boy from a village in Anatolia, is abused and beaten by the villainous local landowner, Abdi Ağa.

Having endured great cruelty towards himself and his mother, Döne, Memed finally escapes with his beloved, a girl named Hatçe.

Abdi Ağa catches up with the young couple, but only manages to capture Hatçe, while Memed is able to avoid his pursuers and runs into the mountains.

When Memed returns to the town, a villager named Hürü Ana tells him he has a "woman's heart" if he surrenders himself.

Instead of surrendering and being granted amnesty by the government, he rides into town to find his enemy, on a horse given to him by the townspeople.
