“Shababik” is a family comedy set in 1980s Egypt, where a middle-class Cairo family hosts a traditional Upper Egyptian family visiting to propose to their daughter; tensions quickly rise due to clashing customs and perspectives, until the assassination of Anwar Sadat triggers a citywide curfew that forces both families to remain together under one roof, turning the confined space into a lively setting for humorous situations and heartfelt moments that highlight generational and cultural differences, while ultimately celebrating the shared values that bring families together.
