Synopsis
The events take place in the year 1948, where delusions dominate the mind of Souad and she believes that she can be linked to Ezz El-Din, the man she loves through magic, so she puts a piece of sugar that she brought from one of the impostors in his cup of tea for her lover, Ezz El-Din. She manages to marry him, but the magic turns against the magician, as Ezz El-Din suffers severe pain in his stomach and learns about it.
