The Balance

When the wife of a known politician is killed, her husband Sherif is accused of her murder. Noha, a lawyer, seeks to get assigned to the case.

Sherif denies killing his wife and claims that the murder weapon, his own gun, was stolen before the murder. Despite his efforts, he is sentenced to death. His second wife looks for a lawyer and Noha gets assigned to the case.

Noha's husband Khaled warns her about the case. She proves that a witness has lied to the prosecution. She meets up with Sherif but doesn't believe his claims.

Noha asks Mohsen to locate Sherif's son. She finds Aref, who was being cared for by the murdered Dina, and discovers that Dina was seeing a fortune-teller to whom she gave Sherif's gun.

Aref tells Noha that Dina kept a diary. Upon finding it, Noha finds proof that Sherif is innocent.

When the evidence of Sherif's innocence ends up missing, she suspects either Salama or Yasser of being the culprit. She confronts Yasser who denies the accusation. Sherif is executed.
