Based on true events, The Choice follows Colonel Ahmed Mansi, commander of Egypt's elite Thunderbolt Brigade, and his former comrade Ashmawy — once brothers in arms, now on opposite sides of a war. While Mansi fights to defend his country against rising extremism in the Sinai, Ashmawy has been radicalised into a militant leader. A gripping military drama about sacrifice, loyalty, and the diverging paths two soldiers choose.

The series follows the life of Ahmed Saber El-Mansy, the Thunderbolt Forces commander of the battalion 103 who was martyred in the checkpoint of the Burth Square in the Egyptian city of Rafah in 2017 while countering a terrorist attack in Sinai.

The series tackles the heroics of Egyptian policemen in the face of the dangers to which the country was exposed after the fall of the terrorist Muslim Brotherhood in 2013, as it focuses mainly on Rabaa sit-in dispersal and Kerdasa events.
