Cairo 2011, twenty-five thousand people protest against Mubarak and dream the same dream of big changes. But while love transcends class divides and blossoms in a euphoric crowd, medical student Khaled is murdered in plain sight.

Faced with the biggest crisis so far, the old regime (the general and his friends) does not intend to give up, and launches a devastating counterattack.
