Producing House

The carefree existence of a spoiled man comes to an end when his mother is arrested. With no education or tangible skills, the man’s only salvation lies in finding his mysterious, rich father whom he has never met. Moving from Alexandria to Cairo, the man becomes embroiled in an affair, while also falling for a pure-hearted journalist who is attempting to assist him in his aimless, futile journey. Adapted from Naguib Mahfouz’s 1964 novel of the same title.
