A former manual worker in a printing press whose job had been rendered invalid due to the growing use of computers, Mahmoud is at a point in his life where he can totally relate to dinosaurs who had gone extinct. He leads a routine life that revolves around the photocopy joint he owns, his pension, always late, and his neighbors and customers who, like him, are warm and affectionate. Nothing clouds this pretty picture except for the greedy landlord, who harbors no compassion for Mahmoud’s financial difficulties and is constantly nagging him about being late to pay his rent.
