The well known dancer Sonia Salim watched a minister speaking on television in a very serious tone. Sonia recalls that that same politician Khaled Madkour was someone she got to know ten years ago at the nightclub where she used to dance. The politician then asked her to host a special party for a visiting Arab politician for a compensation of four thousand pounds. She allows into her bed for a whole night but he does not give her the sum which they had agreed to but rather disappears completely from her life. That is until she sees him on television as a minister. Sonia decides to reveal the truth about Khaled Madkour to the general public and to make use of his position to acquire what she wants. Thus she disguises herself as a deputy in the People’s Assembly and she manages to get into his office whereby he evades her in an effort to safeguard his political career. Sonia then threatens to reveal the truth about him by publishing his memoirs. At this point the minister and other senior officials begin to panic and they offer Sonia large sums in an effort to persuade her not to publish the memoirs. After receiving the funds Sonia decides to use them to put together a nursery for orphaned children – a project which appealed to her due to the fact that she was not married and had no children. However she meets some difficulty when trying to put the project together the charitable project because of the fact that she is a dancer.
