Abu Omar Al-Masry

When a terrorist group kidnaps Fakhr Al-Din's son, Fakhr heads to their headquarters and stabs the leader as he goes out with his son and they embark on a journey back to Egypt. When the son shows clear abhorrence of his father, Fakhr recounts his story and how he got involved with terrorists.

A flashback reveals Fakhr's beginning as a humble lawyer who has a relationship with the wealthy Sherine. She insists that he has to find a better job to improve his living conditions, especially after his uncle refuses to give him his inheritance. She gets him a job at a prestigious law firm.

As Fakhr is assigned Samir Al-Abd's case, he visits him at his villa where Samir shows his ugly side. At court, Fakhr's conscience awakens and instead of defending Samir, he condemns him. Samir vows revenge. In the present, Fakhr and his son continue to walk the blazing desert.
