This is ‘What are you waiting for?’

Can, an attractive air pilot of Turkish descent, respectful of the will of a traditional father, attends monthly dinners where he is presented with possible candidates for marriage. At one of them, he meets Sonia, a single mother who shows up, unannounced, at the dinner her mother has organized for her other two sisters to meet the rich heir.

Can and Sonia will discover, without knowing it, that they have a lot in common. They enjoy sex without strings, frequent clubs where they give free rein to their pleasures and keep their emotions at bay to avoid falling in love.

On the other hand, Daryl, Can’s close friend and also a pilot, is willing to give up his bachelorhood when he falls in love with Carol, a very cheeky stewardess who will turn his life upside down, but the fears they both drag and their differences will force them to question their feelings and to value if they can overcome what separates them."
