NRAcross football stadiums, concert halls, and religious gatherings, three Egyptians live in the shadow of famous figures they strikingly resemble. A journey into how a genetic coincidence evolved into a profession, an identity, and a destiny - and how the lookalike came to fill a space the real celebrity never could, meeting admirers in streets, villages, and local celebrations, becoming a star within reach and, at times, rivaling the original.

NRMost of the Egyptians keep a lot of old stuff in the corners of their balconies, and inside the houses there are many invisible corners cluttered with such unused stuff. This phenomenon is so common in all the Egyptians houses to the extent that it became a part of the nature and features of the Egyptian house. The film offers an exciting experience by letting us have a closer look inside the houses of a number of Egyptian families.
