In the 13th century AD, the Turkish slave girl (Shajarat al-Durr) captures the heart of (Al-Malik Al-Salih) and he marries her so that she can interfere in the affairs of the country and plot and plan conspiracies and schemes when the war against the Crusaders breaks out. It happens that (Al-Malik Al-Salih) dies during the war, so she hides the news of his death so that the soldiers in the battle will not be shaken, and she continues to rule and command in his name.
