Additional Information

Additional Information
Terry is being pursued by the rich, obnoxious, karate champion Mike, who wants sex, and will not take no for an answer. At one point, Mike almost rapes Terry, but an old friend of hers intervenes and stops it. In addition to this, Mike is pressuring his father to foreclose the business that is owned by Terry's father. To help her father, Terry challenges Mike to a fight: If she can throw him in the river, he will leave her and her father alone, but if she loses, she will sleep with him. So Terry begins six weeks of training with a martial arts instructor.

This drama combines equal portions of martial arts and feminist drama. Well-muscled Terry (Graciela Casillas) is relentlessly pursued by the rich, obnoxious Mike (Patrick St. Esprit), who has sex and matrimony as his objective. On one occasion, Mike nearly rapes Terry, who is saved only by the intervention of Jason (John Martin), an old friend. Meanwhile, Mike is putting pressure on his father to foreclose on a business owned by Terry's father and the situation is getting desperate. So Terry challenges Mike, who is a karate champ, to a contest. They will have a fight; if she can throw him in the river, her father gets to keep his business and Mike will leave her alone. If she loses, Mike gets a night with her. Of course, Terry only has six weeks to learn how to defend herself but as fortune would have it, a miracle-working Philippine martial arts instructor has recently arrived in town. ~
