Synopsis by Eleanor Mannikka

An Egyptian woman decides to leave her boyfriend behind and go to Paris to study. While in that city, she strikes up a relationship with an Israeli woman who is posing as an Egyptian, but is actually a spy. The two develop a sexual relationship, and the spy convinces the young woman to join her organization, which is really dedicated to bringing peace between Egypt and Israel (she says). Added to the persuasion are an apartment and money, enough to convince the woman to join in, and to get her former boyfriend to help out as well. As a result of their machinations, Israelis bomb what appear to be Egyptian missile sites. Meanwhile, an Egyptian agent discovers what this woman has been doing, and is out to capture her and bring her back to Egypt.
