Once Upon a Time in The Café, is a 2019 Egyptian movie, directed by Noha Adel. with a runtime of 16 minutes.
Once Upon a Time in The Café is an Egyptian comedy film set in a working-class Cairo neighborhood during the electric atmosphere of Egypt's World Cup match against Russia. When a young man dares to criticize the performance of football icon Mohamed Salah — a figure then elevated to near-mythical status on Egypt's streets — a casual viewing session among friends erupts into a heated quarrel. The film uses the moment as a sharp, funny lens on Egyptian street culture, collective passion, and the outsized role football plays in everyday life.
