Hekmat, the principal of a school for girls, tries to put her educational theory into effect across all the schools in Alexandria, but she faces a lot of obstacles, both within and without the school, in addition to her personal problems that she struggles to solve.
Hikmat was surprised by the decision to honor the Minister of Education for her efforts at the school. Hikmat follows the student Sahar, whose father wants to deprive her of education and marry her to a man.
