Plot summary: Nabila, the wife of a wealthy man named Megdi [Imad Hamdi (1909-1984)], died, leaving him alone with his young daughter. While he was shopping one day he met a woman named Nawal [Hind Rostom (1931-2011)] who looked and acted like his late wife. Nawal was a nightclub dancer. His daughter and Nawal became like mother and daughter, and Magdi's relationship with Nawal helped him forget his sorrow because of the loss of his wife. As the story develops Megdi's friend Dr. Monir [Mahmoud El-Meliguy (1910-1933)] also forms a close relationship with Nawal, who is in fact the film's "gift from heaven."
