Write a short summary of what happens in the film.

Kid play…Friendly match…show skills... defender angry…tackle kid… kid injury…hospital go…surgery make. This is how we communicated our film; creating a new lingo that cuts short in any sentence to make it understandable in just 2 words, why? Because this is how we would tell a story if speaking was charged for money in real life. The family had to run to the hospital as their son got injured in a football match after showing off his skills against the other team, a defender got angry and aggressively tackled him, doctor comes with bad news that the kid has to undergo a huge surgery that will leave him disabled enough to study for his exams, the mom is worried that he will fail ignoring the fact that her son is seriously injured, heroically the father intervenes and tries to revise the ancient Egyptian history curriculum with him but it ends miserably.

Cultural/Context information for the jury

In Egypt, the bond between the family is the strongest, to the extent that youth regardless their ages never move out unless they either get married or travel abroad. Family members share their secrets to family before anyone else, that’s also reflected on how much family calls each other during the day to give some updates or just making sure that everything’s alright, but the harsh economic status in Egypt is making people very careful while spending their money, this pushed people to do major cuts in their expenses to save as much money as they can, this also made them use their phones less; limiting calls to family, that’s why we created a new lingo that cuts short in any sentence to make it understandable in just 2 words, why? Because this is how we would tell a story if speaking was charged for money in real life.
