Overview
The Scornful Man is an Egyptian comedy film following an unemployed young man hounded by creditors and drowning in debt, with a sympathetic girl as his only lifeline.

In that very fall, however, he makes a remarkable discovery: a stash of hidden money concealed in the ceiling above him. His fortunes flip overnight, turning the film's bleak premise into a buoyant comedy about luck, despair, and the absurdity of fate.
