How to Save Asiye (Asiye Nasıl kurtulur?)

Asiye Nasıl Kurtulur? is a 1986 Turkish film directed by Atıf Yılmaz. Adapted from Vasıf Öngören's stage play of the same name, it blends comedy, drama, and musical elements.

At the center of the story is Asiye, a young woman living in poverty who searches for a way to change her life. The film examines, with an ironic tone, the various paths to salvation open to her and the options society forces upon her. Müjde Ar stars as Asiye, alongside a cast that includes Ali Poyrazoğlu, Hümeyra, Füsun Demirel, and Taner Barlas. Carrying Öngören's epic theatre approach to the screen, the film stands out for its critical look at women's condition and poverty in its era.
