    A born of an excellent Film Director

    "MOHAMED RABIE" remember this name as it will change the cinema industry in Egypt, brilliant work, I'm not exaggerating but this is one of the best films I've ever seen in my entire life, I was thinking that the cinema in Egypt will never be good again until I saw this 23 minutes MASTERPIECE, what is that? Literally what is that?, how do you crafted it guys on a minimum budget for an indie film? If you got a budget and worked with big production houses what will you do? I've so many questions, but for now I just want to say that I'm happy for seeing it and I'll recommend it every where and I want to see more of it, I want to see more from those ideas with the minds behind it.

    A VERY BIG THANK YOU FOR THE DIRECTOR AND THE WRITER FOR THIS MASTERPIECE.

    An amazing experience that we should see more of it

    24 minutes of creativity, great story, sensitive yet professional film director, high professional level of photography, acting, drama and comedy. I am so proud that we reached this level in an Egyptian indie film. I think it will be a motivation to the cinema makers to make more films at the same level with that amazing crew.

    I guess the have to take the chance to do more of that I guess they will do beautiful things that will be written in the Egyptian history of cinema, and the future generations will thank them for that, that indie film made me think that the Egyptian cinema will take back the lead one day with those minds.

    A different experience

    I really like this movie it was creative i liked how they used the jokes & they didn't force it in order not to make it cringy & nasty the actors did really a great job . The comedy compared to the other Egyptian movies is waayyy better i laughed alot. As an Egyptian watching Egyptian movies i really missed the situation comedy we missed this type of movie, overall the film isn't long , not boring. Also shout-out to the writer & the director who did the deam scene very well so random and funny . I wish i could find Mahmoud maged in other movies cuz he is very spontaneous. Thanks to the staff for providing a unique experience.
