People Downstairs (1960)

8.0/10 110 min Drama Comedy

Overview

A house in Abbaseya is divided into two parts: the first is the basement, where poor people live and dream of ascending the social ladder, while in the other part the rich residents live. Although both worlds are extremely distant, they are only bound by romance, as the film follows love affairs between contrasting characters from both worlds.
