In the fascinating ancient Egyptian city of Luxor, marriage blossoms on the banks of the Nile where mature foreign women find love and companionship with local younger men. Could this be love ?

Sarannah feels she was given a new shot at life and can now relive her youth. Moving to Luxor she met and married Hamdy, 30 years her junior. Madly and happily in love with Hamdy, all she wants to do is spend time with him and enjoy life. Her friend Nerchia met and married Khaled and it was joyous…for a while. Khaled felt he wanted children which the older Nerchia was not able to have, and he found a much younger 2nd Egyptian wife. Of course, this has led Nerchia to make some tough decisions. AbdelRahim, a local tour guide married with 2 kids, wants to connect with a foreign woman to help secure his future. Abdel, like many others, meets women online, and hopes to convince them to move to Luxor. It is through an online platform that he connects with an older German / American woman, Monica. After a few months of online romance, she falls for him, moves to Luxor and promises to take care of him. The film follows these three women as they leave their lives behind to travel to a mysterious new world; one that blurs the boundaries between business and romance.
