Aicha, a high-school student, is a passionate kung fu fighter. Her Turkish parents expect her to get good grades so she can get into medical school, like her brother Ali. But school doesn't inspire her. Defying her family, Aicha starts secretly training at a professional, co-ed kung fu club. A boy, Emil, helps Aicha train for the club championship and they fall in love. But the rules of life are not as simple as the rules of kung fu, and Aicha is forced to decide who she is and what she wants.
Natasha Arthy's film has been in the works for a little while now and the first trailer has just arrived. Honestly, I didn't have much in the way of expectations for this but the trailer looks surprisingly good, the cinematography, casting and choreography all quite compelling. Nice.
At first as I read the write up above, I thought it was the Israel movie I had watched some time back (and right now I'm trying to put a name to the movie but no luck). It was a good drama centered around martial arts.
Fighter also appears to be a good movie, lets wait and see.
Any idea on the name of the Israel movie I mentioned above.
First the Chileans and now the Danish. Bring it!
