Storyline
| Plot Summary |
Choubra, cosmopolitan neighborhood of Cairo. Hatem, maggoty police officer, handles this neighborhood with an iron hand. Every single citizen fears and hates him. Only Nour, a young woman he lusts after, dares stand up to him. But Nour is secretly in love with Cherif, brilliant and uncorrupted deputy public prosecutor. Green with envy, Hatem comes between. He wants Nour for himself. He whipsaws her and turns her life into a nightmare. The story of a frustrated love like Choubra experiences some since the mists of time. Written by Hassan Said |

| Trivia | The movie title was originally "Chaos, it is", yet the Egyptian censorship requested an addition of "?" at the end so it'll be like a question not an affirmation. The main theme of the movie is the chaos, corruption and brutality by the Egyptian police. See more » |
