The young shepherd’s daughter, Maria, witnesses the rape and death of her mother. Karaivan decides to take the law into his own hands and becomes obsessed by his violent wish for revenge. He cuts Maria’s hair, dresses her in man's clothes and raises her as a boy so that she can kill in cold blood. The goat horn becomes a symbol of revenge. After 9 years she has found the four violators and managed to kill three of the men with the goat horn, but before killing the last one, in the rich oriental house Maria is unwitting witness to a love scene and a change comes over her.
