After years of pursuing his dream, archaeologist Howard Carter succeeds in finding the tomb of Pharaoh Tutankhamun in 1922. Ibrahim, one of the excavation workers, is not happy about the find: it implies the fulfillment of a threat that endangers his family, especially his son Ahmed. On Ahmed's ninth birthday, his grandfather Mohamed gives him a very special gift: a pair of sandals that, according to him, belonged to Tutankhamun. Is it true? The grandfather assures that yes, they have been passed down from generation to generation over the centuries. And that it is a secret they must keep.
