Mostafa El-Sebaily (Mohamed Ragab), a chemical researcher at the National Research Centre, works in the field of combating and treating viral diseases. He develops groundbreaking research that attracts the attention of a shady organization seeking to acquire it through its operative in Egypt, the director of the research center, Professor Dr. Fouad (Ahmed Seyam). Dr. Fouad offers Mostafa a huge check to relinquish the research, but Mostafa refuses. Consequently, mobster Hassan (Magdy Badr) is tasked with obtaining the research and eliminating Dr. Mostafa. The doctor is assaulted, but they fail to find the research on him; he is shot, put into his car, and it is blown up. However, Dr. Mostafa, near whose heart the bullet passed, manages to crawl away from the car before it explodes. Dr. Mostafa had been married for a year to the beautiful Angela (Mirna Gamel) and lived with her in immense happiness, marred only by her occasional demands for him to pursue money to fulfill her ambitions, since most of his meager salary was spent on his research. The doctor's disappearance terrified his wife Angela, sending her into a severe psychological breakdown that nearly destroyed her, as she kept seeing her beloved Mostafa everywhere and begged her father (Ehsan Turk) to locate Mostafa by any means. In the Roubiki neighborhood in El-Basateen, Uncle Reda (Ahmed Halawa), a junk dealer, lives with his three daughters: Afaf (Shaimaa Seif), Hayam (Ayten Amer), and Lobna (Sarah Saadoun), along with Afaf's fiancé, garbage collector Hamdy (Hassan Abdelfattah). While Hamdy was out in the morning collecting rubbish with Afaf and Hayam on a donkey cart, they found Dr. Mostafa injured and bleeding in the trash. They took him to the Health Insurance Hospital, where the medical report stated he had amnesia. Hayam monitored his condition until his discharge. Having nowhere to shelter him, she asked Uncle Reda to house him in the shack next to their home until his family appeared, and they named him Barakat. Barakat integrated among the alley's residents, working with Hayam collecting scrap and upgrading the cart to a tricycle, and then to a used pickup truck. Salah El-Shemal (Mohamed Lotfy), a crooked junk dealer, arrived in the alley to work in the area, constantly harassing both Hayam and Barakat. Hayam discovered Dr. Mostafa's true identity through a newspaper clipping, but kept it secret because she had fallen in love with him; learning he was married, she lamented her misfortune. When she confronted him with what she knew, he asked her to keep quiet. She helped him when Uncle Reda offered him his daughter's hand in marriage, and they both agreed to the engagement. During one of Barakat's rounds, his wife Angela saw and recognized him. Strangely, Angela was actually a member of the organization, planted by them, and was the mistress of Dr. Fouad. Fouad sought to determine whether Mostafa's amnesia was genuine, so Salah El-Shemal was recruited to surveil him, report on him, and photograph the research papers in his possession for half a million pounds. Once the organization confirmed the critical nature of the research, it decided to eliminate Mostafa and Salah El-Shemal. However, the latter was in fact Lieutenant Colonel Mohamed Samy, who prepared a force to confront Fouad's men, arrested Hassan, and then arrested Dr. Fouad and Angela. Dr. Mostafa's completed research was submitted to the competent authorities. Mostafa praised the life he spent among poor, struggling people, thanked Hayam for helping him, and proposed to her.
