New Year's Champion is an Egyptian comedy film set on the eve of the New Year, when anxiety and self-absorption grip nearly everyone. The exception is the Batal — the champion — who alone steps up to take responsibility for what others want to ignore. The film mines the humor and chaos of New Year's celebrations, using the festive backdrop to shine a light on social attitudes, personal fears, and the unlikely heroism that can emerge when everyone else is looking the other way. It is a lighthearted take on collective human nature wrapped in the energy of Egypt's holiday spirit.
