Khaled, the spoiled idle son of a pasha, meets Malim, carpenter's
apprentice and son of a scoundrel, when he comes to fix a broken
window. In the course of his work, Malim stumbles across a stash of
money and dutifully hands it in. Khaled cooks up an overly
elaborate plot to see that his dastardly father pays Malim his due,
but the plot backfires and Malim is thrown in jail. Khaled's guilt
over Malim's misfortune, made worse by his ridiculous attempts to
defend him, result in a decisive moment: he breaks ties with his
cruel and tyrannical father, seeking to leave behind the
upper-class lifestyle he finds so suffocating. They meet again
years later, when Malim has been released from prison and given up
on earning an honest living. Khaled gets caught up in Malim's
latest scam and is drawn into joining his commune of eccentrics and
failed artists living in a derelict Mamluk citadel.
