简介
A contemporary social drama series, “La Totfe el Shams“ is based on the novel by the Egyptian writer Ehsan Abdul-Quddus. The series is a subversive take on the novel that revolves around the lives and problems of the family of the late Ibrahim Abulmagd. The family consists of the widow and mother Eqbal whose marriage to her husband was arranged at a very early age and was naturally void of any love or affection, and her children. Fifi is the eldest daughter, an honors college student who is unfortunately not as pretty or attractive as her other younger sisters; this in turn resulted in her being a bitter introvert. Ahmed, the eldest son, considers himself the head of the family and the sole guardian of his mother and siblings after his father's death.
