Synopsis

An oasis named Paris hosts a small town in the New Valley Governorate. As the 1952 Egyptian Revolution brews, Dr. Wagih flees there, but his wife Samia refuses to follow him under pressure from her mother. Samia returns to Cairo, and Dr. Wagih is left to get to know his new neighbors. These include Nagi, an engineer embittered by a woman’s betrayal, and Daoud, a principal and head teacher at the local primary school looking for a wife who finds one in town. Samia returns to live with her husband, and Nagi marries a new social worker who charms away his surliness and also happens to be named Samia.
