The Lookalike

Directed by Nehal Elkoussi

With Khaled Mounir, Aladdin Ahmed and Abdel Nabi Kaabou

Across 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.
