2023 ∙ Dramatic Comedy ∙ 122 minutes ∙ English, Hebrew, Arabic ∙ Peter Keller, Stefan Sarazin This endearing, tumultuous journey tells the story of an unlikely friendship that forms in the depths of the Sinai desert. When a stranded Brooklyn Jew crosses paths with a surly Bedouin, the two form a bond through their cultural differences. Ultra-Orthodox Ben relies on Arab nomad Adel to help him make his way to fulfill his promise of helping Alexandria, Egypt’s weakening Jewish community. Through this desertscape road-trip comes a tale of religious tolerance and perseverance.
