Synopsis
Cairo, Egypt. Hebba Younis is a fiercely independent talk-show host that is married to Karim Hassan, a needy newspaper editor for a government-owned daily. Hebba is asked to forfeit her career for the professional ambitions of her husband. In the eyes of government, before Karim can ascend the political and professional ladder, he must persuade his wife to soften the blazingly critical tone she broadcasts across the nation. Afraid of how a divorce will affect her celebrity, Hebba complies in prioritizing her marriage over her professional aims. But by shifting from hard politics to softer women's stories, she discovers lives and struggles that may be even more damaging to reveal.
