Plot summary: Engineer Sherif, his wife Soad [Youssra] the teacher, their daughter Sara, their son Hani and his mother [Naima El Saghira] were living in a shelter after the destruction of their home. Because of the inhumane conditions in the shelter they took refuge in a barn, but were surprised to find Abou Douma [Ali El Cherif] living there.
