The year is 1947 and Saddika (Egyptian born singer Dalida) lives with her paralytic husband and her grandson, Hassan, while a cholera epidemic ravages Cairo. Her difficult life mirrors that of the heroine in her favorite movie, A MOTHER'S SACRIFICE. When cholera strikes Hassan, Saddika enlists the help of Okka, a Gene Kelly fanatic who has been courting her, to take Hassan to Alexandria. There they await the sixth day, the fateful day when the cholera victim either recovers or dies.
