The Virgin and Scorpio is an Egyptian social drama that tackles exploitation, blackmail, and the vulnerability of working women. Fatma, employed at a clothing factory, becomes the target of Sultan, an opportunistic man who sees her father's financial desperation as leverage for marriage. When he discovers that Fatma loves another man named Gaber and has no intention of accepting his proposal, Sultan unleashes a calculated act of revenge — spreading a fabricated rumor that she has been having an illicit affair with him. The film offers a frank portrait of the social pressures and reputational threats that women face when they assert their right to choose, and the disproportionate burden they bear in societies where honor and rumor are wielded as weapons.
