I was sleep deprived to begin with then I was watching this in the middle of the night.
A young fellow whose parents died in a car wreck claims in his high school French class that his Palestinian father tried to use his pregnant wife to smuggle a bomb on board an Israeli airliner.
A Muslim woman stops and speaks to the teen and his uncle as they put up a nativity scene in their front yard. She mentions that Muslims consider Jesus a prophet.
"Don't the Jews ALSO consider Jesus a prophet?" the kid says.
No. They don't. It's not a point against them, so it just sounds stupid to say they do.
And since she considers Jesus a prophet, a burka-clad Muslim woman shouldn't take kindly to a graven image of him.
Movie with a lot of characters who openly hate Palestinians and love Zionists. The only guy in the movie with any sympathy for Palestinians is a Nazi on the internet.
Directed by Atom Egoyan, a Canadian-Egyptian-Armenian. The Israeli government claims that the Armenian genocide was a hoax and Israeli ultra-Orthodox Jews are known for spitting on Armenian priests. The guy ought to show some self-respect.
Available on the Criterion Channel.
