The Cat Is Originally a Lion is an Egyptian comedy film that flips the domestic power dynamic on its head. After Naguib marries Nawara and they relocate to Port Said, Nawara grows frustrated by her husband's insistence on ruling the household. Enlisting her friend Safia in a scheme to make Naguib jealous, she succeeds in shifting the balance of power firmly in her favor. Emboldened, Nawara channels her energy into business, eventually rising to become a well-known businesswoman in her own right. But her success changes the dynamics far beyond what either of them bargained for, as the story escalates into a comedic examination of ambition, marriage, and the evolving roles of men and women in Egyptian society.
