Chief Kamel loses his job after an accident. His wife, Widad, works as a secretary for his company's manager. When Kamel suspects his wife's betrayal and divorces her, he leaves with his son to Cairo. Widad marries the manager and the employee Hamdy tries to assault her.
Directed by Tayseer Abood, A Handful of Days leans on a strong ensemble — Farid Shawqy, Nahed Sherif, Magdy Wahba — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.
The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about drama titles of 1978.
