A darkly comedic satire about bureaucratic absurdity that spirals into an accidental hostage crisis, blending social critique with farcical action.

Ahmed heads to Tahrir compound to extract papers to move his son to another school. There he clashes with the administrative obstacles. He suddenly finds himself involved in carrying a weapon and taking hostages at the government building and becomes a terrorist in the process.
