Write a short summary of what happens in the film
Filmed vertically in a TikTok-style tutorial, the film opens up on our protagonist in the corner of a garden on a yoga mat explaining how to workout at home. He begins with the glaringly obvious, "you need to have muscles" and proceeds to list a number of exercises such as "do push-ups, sit-ups, pull-ups, legs, make some tea and then come back and do it again." A visual of a phone appears Googling "how to workout at home" followed by all the results with a voiceover asking, "want to know how to do anything? Ask Google."
Cultural / Context information for the jury
For this series of copies, we start off with our protagonist claiming to show his fans how to do something but we quickly notice he's obviously showing a completely wrong way to do it. This is a very cultural thing in Egypt where very few people will tell you they don't know the answer to something and will instead proceed to explain something to you they know nothing about. The term in Arabic is "fahlawa" which would be considered a verb, the protagonist here is a "fahlawee". Both words pronounced with a soft H, not the harsh Arabic H.
