Dramatic work about "ʻAṭwah" who was a simple worker in a factory in the era of British camp in Egypt but he was dismissed. He worked as a guard to some prostitute in ʻImād al-Dīn street. He met a woman called "Rawḥīyah" who lost her family by some British soldiers. "ʻAṭwah" knew a princess who convinced him to work as a spy to get information about the Egyptian fighters. ʻAṭwah's brother "Ṣalāḥ" was killed by the British forces. He regretted and decided to work with the Egyptian fighters. At the end he became a hero especially, after he was arrested.
