Synopsis by Mark Deming

A man looking to start a new life goes on one last spree in this high-spirited musical. Omar has just turned 30, and his life is in sad shape: he's depressed, he hasn't been able to find a decent job, and his hair is starting to turn gray. Omar decides that he might have better luck in America, so he makes plans to emigrate, giving himself a month to enjoy himself before leaving his home, family, and friends behind. As Omar tries to turn his life into a party for the next four weeks, he meets a woman who was mistaken for dead and nearly buried alive. Keenly aware that life must be lived for the moment, the woman infuses Omar with her vibrant sense of joie de vivre as they share a number of remarkable adventures. Omar 2000 stars Khaled Al Nabawi, Ahmed Helmi, and Mona Zaki.
