Is it for you?

Who'll love it
Great for people who like stories about real, flawed people. One to watch when you can give it your full attention.
The mood
Thoughtful and character-driven.
The pace
Takes its time with its characters, at 1 hr 45 min.
What might put you off
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Made in 1942: an older pace and style.
  • Skip it if you need something light and fast tonight.

The prosecutor (Kamel) succeeds in convicting (Othman Borai), the drug dealer, and (Borai)’s wife decides to take revenge on the prosecutor, causing a quarrel between him and his wife (Samiha). Kamel believes that his wife is cheating on him, so he divorces her and expels her from the house. He discovers the truth and tries to search for her. He learns that she jumped into the Nile, so he travels with his son outside the country.
