Photocopy is film that revolves around an old man "Mahmoud Photocopy" who has an empty life and deals with the society that he has seen evolve around him. The story shows the real meaning of life and ironically how an old man can make the most out of it.
The film is very touching and easy to relate to no matter how old you are, the performances are all great excluding none. the music and the set locations are remarkable.
It's sad to know that such a meaningful film is not getting much recognition in the modern Egyptian cinema.

Like music you hear to chill, watch this movie to calm down and relax.
Story is about how to be good so you see all as good as you are. How to always look at the bright side, the filled half, the light at the end of the tunnel and the white that is obvious when you see the black.
Decoration is 10/10 Dressing is 10/10 Camera 10/10
A very nice movie and great actors.

A very nice movie and great actors.
The movie is funny sometimes and dramatic sometimes a tearjerker on a scene and hilarious on the other. The movie is soft, cinematography is great and visually pleasing. The story proves that love is ageless.
I really enjoyed this heart touching film. It provided me a glance of classical Egypt in twentieth century mixed with human feelings. It teaches us that our ability to enjoy life can't get extinct. The actors performance was great, especially that of Mahmoud Hemeida.
