About Taşra Kızı
The film tells the story of a woman's love affair with a composer she admires. Macide, whose parents are deceased, lives in a small town with her aunt. Macide is in love with the famous composer Vedat Süreyya. She follows all of his programs. One day, Macide's father's friend Süleyman Bey offers to take Macide to Istanbul. Macide is delighted with this offer and moves to Istanbul to live in Süleyman Bey's house. Süleyman Bey's daughter Sacide is uncomfortable with this situation. She and her friends mock Macide for being from the countryside. At that moment, Sacide's boyfriend, Vedat Süreyya, arrives. He also looks down on Macide like the others. However, things will soon take a turn for the worse.
Directed by Orhan Elmas, Taşra Kızı leans on a strong ensemble — Müjde Ar, Ahmet Sezerel, Sevda Aktolga — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1977.

The film is a love story. However, it is not a story about the love between two people, but rather a story about the love and affection that a group of people feel for life and for each other. The film depicts all kinds of love, from east to west, from schoolchildren to villagers, from young to old, in both an emotional and humorous way.
