Soft Hands (Arabic: الأيدي الناعمة, translit. al-aydi al-nā'ima) is a 1964 Egyptian comedy film directed by Mahmoud Zulfikar and based on a play of the same name by Egyptian playwright Tawfiq al-Hakim (1953). It was entered into the 14th Berlin International Film Festival.[1]

The plot involves a formerly landed aristocrat dispossessed by the 1952 Egyptian Revolution, which brought in Gamal Abdel Nasser, and an Arabic instructor, both of whom must adjust to the new social and political realities in a new Nasserite socialist Egypt.
