screenplay by Mohsen Zayed and cinematography by Tarek El-Telmisany.
Plot summary: In 1973 in an Egyptian village Abdel Zeraq al-Shershabi

order after the lifting of a receivership. His young second wife
threatened to tell people he had become sexually impotent if he did
not prevent their only son Tawfiq from being drafted into the army
along with his other children from his first wife. The mayor
pressured an oppressed farm laborer named Abel Mawgud to have his son
Masri, who was exempt from the draft, take the place of his son Tawfiq
in the induction in exchange for the Mayor giving him the five feddans
he was farming, assigning him a special work crew and giving him a

about what had happened to a recruiter named Hassan [Ashraf Abdel Baqi]. The police were
investigating the incident, but Abdel Mawgud denied being Masri's
father out of fear of the Mayor's anger, who had only paid him 261
pounds and refused to give him the land he had promised.
