Synopsis
Great Beans of China stars Mohamed Henedi as Mohyee El-Sharkawi: a young man with low grades, no job, and no life experience. El-Sharkawi is an innocent member of a family involved in illegal activities, who try to teach him to become like them. Through several failed attempts, he makes enemies who come after him. In an attempt to save him, his family sends him to China, to take the place of his father-in-law in an international cooking competition.
Because El-Sharkawi had never been on an aeroplane before, he mistakenly gets sucked into the plane's toilet. To rescue him, he is taken off the plane still on the toilet, where a Chinese attendant named Lee laughs at his predicament. The two fall in love and marry despite El-Sharkawi's family's prejudices, which are resolved with Lee's Chinese philosophies.
