Two days and your lives will return to normal... Goodbye, goodbye, goodbye.
Magdy and Sama, a retired couple in their 60s, live quietly in their Cairo apartment. Their calm routine is disrupted when their fridge breaks down. What should be a simple repair spirals into a bizarre, months-long battle with a shady maintenance company. As the fridge remains unfixed, so does everything else, pushing them to confront not only the cracks in the system but also in their own sense of purpose.

[IFFR '26] With a visual concept of static shots and unique sets that has a certain sitcom feel, this bittersweet comedy about the nightmare of repairing a refrigerator offers a sharp insight into the planned obsolescence that human beings have imposed upon themselves through retirement. The refrigerator that refuses to continue functioning is like a country that is progressively subjected to decay and permanent crisis, maintaining its activity as a form of resistance. It reflects the idea of "Al Qahr," that expression that evokes the feeling of profound powerlessness caused by the historical humiliation experienced by Arab countries.
