God – who created man and gave him the power

to think about both the past and future

did not imbue man with such thinking power

for it to rot away

unused in us.

Okay, enough, Adam.

Someone else to continue reading.

Who else didn't read?

Read, Nadim.

Why, Nadim? You'll kill me with it!

Man takes revenge against who laugh at him to avoid becoming a failure.

God rest your soul, father.

God rest your soul!

He often said that people are no longer what they used to be

and life turned to be a forest.

and life turned to be a forest.

Yes, it turns out he was right.

Even my only friend, whom I thought would stand by my side,

have my back, turned out to be thinking about his personal interests.

I just have one question

that I need an answer to it badly.

What happened to the world?

What happened to the world, Nadim?

Oh!

Oh!

So, what happened to the world?

Aren't you going to say?

You know, ma'am,

my wife

always tells me,

"All men have eyes for every woman, Hamada,

"All men have eyes for every woman, Hamada,

including you."

She adds saying,

"But you, Hamada, only have eyes

for powerful women

who have strong personalities."

You came here to flirt, old man?

Watch out,

I'm still young, don't be fooled

by this grey moustache.

Okay, let me tell you, old man,

that the woman with a strong personality

that the woman with a strong personality

won't be attracted to you.

Let's focus on the case.

God bless you, ma'am.

Anyway, it's the same case here.

You couldn't capture your husband's heart

otherwise, he wouldn't have betrayed you.

Anyway, let's focus on our case.

My fees for this case will be nine million.

What?

Nine million! Why?

Nine million! Why?

Will you rescue my soul from hell?

If you are as innocent as you claim,

I need to know where you were when they seized the heroin

and lifted your fingerprints.

Take it easy, ma'am.

Please be kind.

I'll take nine millions for this case,

half of them to be in my account by tomorrow morning,

otherwise, thanks for coming.

What about...

the video?

the video?

You can upload it to YouTube,

so that the inexperienced ones

would learn from it.

OK, ma'am. Agreed.

Let's recite Al-Fatiha.

No, I'll recite it in my car,

that works too.

I'm honored by your visit.

The honor is yours, ma'am.

May I let Ward in, ma'am?

How are you, Ward?

How are you, ma'am?

Why have you brought me here?

I am Yasser's wife.

Yasser who?

Do you know many men named Yasser?

Look, Ward,

I can put you in jail for the rest of your life,

But I asked about you.

A struggling girl who wants to make a living.

This is a travel ticket to Dubai.

You are traveling tomorrow night.

This is a job offer from the largest hotel there.

You'll work as a singer for six years.

You and your family have never dreamed of such a salary.

I don't want to see you here again.

Thank you so much, given the circumstances...

You can tell your tragedy on TV shows,

not here

Ward!

I hope we don't meet again,

next time I'll do to you more than my husband did.

Thank you so much.

Amani!

Are you good?

Yes.

You can leave and I'll continue with the guys.

I'm good.

Are you all here?

Yes.

The case file in front of you?

The difficulty is that the case was with another lawyer,

but he dropped it five days before the session.

Five days! We should ask for an adjournment.

Five days! We should ask for an adjournment.

No.

I need to see how clever you are.

Don't worry, boss. We'll make you proud.

I know, Ezz.

You should all work on this case, not just Ezz.

We learn from you and work under your guidance.

Enough!

In brief, the case is a about 21-year-old young man

who was caught carrying an unlicensed handgun.

This is not the only problem. Are you with me, Nadim?

Yes, caught with a gun. What next?

He admitted that the gun was his. This's not the only problem.

The biggest problem is that this boy is from a very prominent family in Aswan.

Whoever resolves this case...

Nadim!

Focus with us.

I was saying whoever finds a solution for this case

will take half of its fees.

Not only that, but will serve the pleading too.

What about your permit, Ramallah?

I'm still renewing my residency.

We'll handle this if you got hired.

-This case is very challenging. -Yes.

Indeed.

Okay.

Let's see how clever you are.

It seems like a very difficult case, dear.

What do you think?

Yes, this's the most difficult case ever.

Really! Why?

Really! Why?

Because who solves it will serve the pleading.

So what?

Oh.

Due to your intellectual disability,

you can't stand before people and plead.

There is no power but of God!

I'm not intellectually disabled.

I'm smarter than you.

I'm sorry, dear. No offence intended.

Let me kiss your head!

I don't like being touched, Ezz.

Sorry, Nadim, I like it unlike you.

Let me tell you a secret.

Do You know that you're the most person I like and appreciate in this office?

I don't.

I know you don't believe me.

I'll do you a favor to prove that to you.

You solve the case,

You solve the case,

tell me the resolution and I'll plead in your place.

Seriously?

Yes.

However, this will take a lot effort from me,

pleading in front of people, amidst chaos and tension.

But what else can I do?

This is the duty of friendship.

You solve the case, Nadim,

and leave the rest to me, agree?

Agree.

Thank God!

Agree on what?

If I heard you saying this again,

I'll tell Amani.

Calm down, you're so loud.

Wasn't the past case enough?

-What about it? -Should I tell?

Tell us.

Are you going to gang up on me or what?

What is this?

Tell him.

I'm not responding to you, just for Khaled's sake.

What's happening here?

Why are you so loud?

I don't want any loud voices at my office.

Is it clear?

What's wrong, Nadim?

Nadim!

What's wrong? What is it with you?

Their voice is very loud.

Listen to your music, there's nothing wrong.

Nothing wrong at all.

Nadim.

"No matter how far your dream is

No matter how tough or relentless it is

Even at the end of the road

Start all over again

Your hands are full of wonders

The secrets of the universe lie within you

The sun calls you in the morning

The sun calls you in the morning

It tells you to start all over again

A lone sailor's standing on the ship

The song holds memories

Say goodbye to the sky and walls of the city

Go and search for another life there"

Sit down, son, I'm getting dizzy.

Would you like to play Snakes and Ladders?

OK.

Ok, come.

Here we go.

Which color do you want?

The blue one.

The blue one, Okay.

I should plead tomorrow, Jamil, but I can't.

Why, dear? Prepare yourself

to remain self-confident and plead excellently.

But I failed.

Risk takers are guaranteed to win, dear.

Risk takers are guaranteed to win, dear.

Isn't that so?

What does it mean?

As the old saying goes, "Who prepares well...

I know this one, you told it to me before.

"...performs well."

Exactly.

What does it mean?

It means you should prepare yourself, did you watch The lawyer movie?

Starring Adel Emam.

Or Zaki's Against the Government.

I watched all of them.

They all had confidence,

and spoke with the judge in a weird way,

and spoke with the judge in a weird way,

and shouted at the end.

You are right, but don't do like them.

And they were wearing a good robe.

Yes, the first thing...

Wait.

You want to write it down.

Okay.

The most important thing,

you bring a good robe.

you bring a good robe.

Bring a good robe.

Then you wear it and plead your case,

and record it.

You mean to record myself?

Of course.

To know your strengths and weaknesses

to fix it.

What, I didn't convince you?

What's wrong, dear?

Where are you going, son?

Where are you going?

The one who can truly rescue us,

I saw how we destroy him

in the blink of an eye.

We kill him like this is normal,

so I had to stand and shout

that this is a crime.

A capital crime.

Shake me

The defence attorney.

The defence attorney.

Nadim Ahmed Abo Sreaa.

Shake me from inside

Representative of the accused.

I'm Nadim Ahmed Abo Sreaa. Representative of the accused.

The accused is innocent for one reason only.

The defence attorney.

The accused is innocent for one reason only.

I'll tell you that reason now.

I'll tell you the story from the start.

The defence attorney.

I'm Nadim Ahmed Abo Sreaa, your honor...

Shake me

My client, whose fingerprints

were on the heroin bags in his company

on October tenth, at 4 a.m.

he was on the way to Ain Sokhna at the same time.

My client was going to eat fish and shrimp with his friend.

And in front of you copy of the traffic violations

which proves that my client was on the road at the same time.

Shake me from inside

Shake me strongly

Change the world maps

Change the dates and hours

It follows

that the witnesses' testimony was false.

And it means that my client is innocent of all charges.

And I dispute the witnesses' testimony.

Escape the fear and be able to love

Ma'am.

Thank you very much, ma'am.

You cleared my name in front of the whole court,

but at the same time,

you put me in hot water with my wife.

You're welcome, mr.

Thank you.

Listen.

Yes.

I need your help.

What do you want, Nadim?

I ant you to teach me how you're doing it.

I ant you to teach me how you're doing it.

What do you mean?

You stand in front of the judge with no fear, and plead professionally.

Solve the case first, then think about the pleading.

The case is easy.

I want to plead.

Okay, solve the easy case,

and we'll take care of the pleading later.

I solved the case yesterday at 4:50,

but I couldn't plead.

How did you solve it?

For any gun to shoot,

For any gun to shoot,

you have to pull the slide,

then the bullet go straight to the barrel,

then the hammer return,

and when we pull the trigger,

the hammer shot a needle,

that needle hit the bullet,

and explode the rear part of it,

to push the bullet to leave the gun.

When I checked the gun in the police's possession,

I didn't find that needle.

Which means it's a broken gun,

or a fake gun.

I think they can't charge him for having a fake gun.

How did you know all that?

Via internet.

I checked the gun and it's uses, but I couldn't plead.

Plead?

Bravo, Nadim. You're smart.

But we have a problem.

You couldn't plead.

Yes, I couldn't.

It's a problem.

Yes, it's a problem.

Yes, I'm in trouble.

What is this?

Are we expecting guests?

Come.

I made you steak with mushroom sauce.

A romantic dinner.

A musical dinner.

Musical!

Yes.

It's impossible for you to leave music.

As it's impossible for you to leave law.

Don't be so hard on m

Don't be so hard on m

Eat and tell me what do you think.

You're back to cooking like you used to.

What was occupying you?

You of course.

You're just flattering me.

Listen, Yasser.

I wanted to ask you a question.

You're going to question me again, right?

Don't be unjust.

May I ask the question?

Ask me, Amani.

Why did you marry me?

Why!

It's simple, I married you because I love you.

Why did you cheat on me then?

Again, Amani?

It was a whim that happened five years ago.

And whenever we be together, you bring the same subject up again.

Let's go to sleep better.

Let's go to sleep better.

Sorry, Yasser.

You are right.

It was just a whim.

It happened five years ago.

My love, I want you to know that I can't

think of any woman but you.

I'm sure of that.

I was just teasing you.

Let's eat.

I had a demand.

Another question, Amani?

It's a demand, not a question.

Go ahead.

Go ahead.

Bear with me.

Okay.

I feel that you're neglecting Ali.

You don't sit, play or talk to him any more.

He is asking about you.

This is not the case, Amani.

I'm just under a lot of pressure nowadays

and I have an upcoming show, you know that.

Don't worry about Ali.

He is the apple of my eye.

Excuse me, love.

Honestly, I don't know what to say.

We had five days till the case,

yet we solve it in a day and half.

That means I'm working with brilliant people.

We are your students, Amani.

Mrs. Amani.

I read all your pleads.

And I like that each one of you is unique.

Especially Ezz's pleading.

Especially Ezz's pleading.

We learn from you and work under your guidance.

But the one who solved this case with a simple equation,

is Nadim.

We supposed to work on this case,

But it's solved now.

Each one of you take a copy of the other's pleading.

And so, Amani will take us all to dinner on her treat.

Who will plead the case?

The one who solved it.

Nadim solved it.

Then Nadim will plead.

You look beautiful today.

Thank you.

Honestly, I don't know how to flirt.

How can a lawyer flirt?

You're the easiest case I've ever seen.

Not funny at all.

Why are you laughing?

Youssef and I wonder how can a lawyer flirt?

Lawyer!

Nadim! Are the VIP people come late?

Yes.

What's important, don't be late for the pleading.

Believe me, lawyers are the best in flirting.

Did a lawyer try to flirt with you before?

A lot of them. There was someone

A lot of them. There was someone

who followed me everywhere.

He didn't take any action.

He would just stare at me,

and whenever an eye contact happens, he would wink t me.

-I remember him, Amani. -Did you?

He seems like a clever lawyer.

What a conversation!

And when he dared to talk to me,

he said, "your robe suits you."

Yasser?

-How are you. Coincidence! -What a beautiful coincidence!

This is weird. Yasser Helmy, my husband.

Welcome.

Welcome.

Nada.

Youssef.

Nadim.

Ezz, and Ramallah.

Your name is Nadim?

Yes, Nadim Ahmed Abo Sreaa.

Nadim who I told you about.

Are you Palestinian, Ramallah?

No, I'm Syrian, but my mother originally from Palestine.

She is lucky to have you.

Where were you going?

I have a meeting after 30 minutes, so I came to drink something here.

Drink with us.

Sit here.

Take us with you to this meeting, artist.

I've always wanted to be an artistic lawyer.

Forget it.

Play something for us on the keyboard.

Yes, please.

Okay, but on one condition.

Someone sings.

Wait, who will plead the case?

Me.

Who is going to sing then?

Me?

Nadim Ahmed Abo Sreaa.

Do you want to sing, Nadim?

Okay.

What will you sing, Nadim?

If we forgot or tried to

We can't escape

from ourselves

Everything is forgotten

And you're here always

But they say

That you're not here
