Between Places plot
Nagib moves from Egypt to San Francisco because he got a job in the automation industry. He falls in love almost immediately with his colleague Aisha, as well as with his attractive neighbor Jeff. However, the attack on September 11 does not make the situation any better for him. Business is going bad at his employer and he is the first to fly out. Nagib must survive after the events of September 11. Furthermore, he is, as it were, a prisoner: he wants to be faithful to his principles as well as to the people he loves.
