Five passengers of a sunken ship land on a secluded island, Engineer Ahmed (Hassan Youssef), famous actress Zaza (Iman), a foreign young man and wealthy merchant Haj Tolba (Anwar Ismail) and his assistant Karshah (Ibrahim Nasr). Hajj Tolba asks Ahmed to build a boat so that they can leave in exchange for giving him a large check.
