The new Egyptian TV series Toyour Al Shams (Sun Birds) depicts the problems of the youth who are lost and do not find any means except violence, according to the daily Al Gomhuria. 

The series explores the conditions at Al Kamal Model Language school where sons of rich people study and Mustafa Kamal School where sons of poor people study. The two schools are separated by a small steel wall. 

Hussein (played by Hisham Salim) is a young man in his late twenties who graduates from the school of Engineering. Although he graduates with distinction, he does not get a job because he has no support. He hopes to work for computer companies, which show no interest in him so his friends advise him to teach Mathematics at Al Kamal Model School. He faces the delinquencies of the students which the English teacher Abeer (played by Shireen) cooperates with him to overcome. Both teachers advise solutions to treat complexes of the youth and finally they succeed in convincing the school owner of getting rid of his greedy partner who cares only for quick money.
