The Story of “Complaint No. 713317”
The film takes place within a social comedy framework, following a married couple as they face a series of changes and situations that affect their everyday lives, particularly after reaching retirement.
The story focuses on Magdy, a retired agricultural engineer, and his wife Sama. Their life initially appears stable, but a seemingly simple incident changes the course of their day and opens the door to a series of unexpected events.
The crisis begins when the couple’s refrigerator breaks down, prompting them to contact a specialized maintenance company for repairs. However, the problem does not remain a simple technical issue, as the couple finds themselves facing a situation involving exploitation, turning an ordinary household problem into a much larger crisis.
