Turkey is one of the countries whose society adheres the practice of sexism in the family and the environment as raised in Mustang movie which was released in 2015 and tells the story of five siblings who live in a village far from the city of Istanbul, Turkey with their grandmother and uncle. This research uses Sara Mills' critical discourse analysis approach to find out how the discourse of sexism is represented in mass media films. The results show that the representation of sexism in Mustang places women as the ones who have control over their bodies and virginity, stigmatisation and violence against women, male authority in the family, domestication, restrictions on freedom of life, and early and forced marriage.
