The story revolves around a journalist named Hamid, who works for a local newspaper and is forced to write articles published under his editor’s name (Idris) due to his difficult financial circumstances, even though he does not agree with the ideas his editor presents to him. He strives to break free from this situation and prove himself as a playwright.
