One from Europe, the other from a country aspiring to be European for centuries. Both are DJs and mothers to 11-year old sons. She-J is the story of two alter-egos; DJ Beyza, the first female DJ of Turkey, and DJ Dame from Holland, two women who follow their passion despite all odds. It is also a film about Turkey with its young urban face and its confrontation with Europe.
