Arranged

If you think you grew up in a close-knit, controlling, family-oriented, faith-based community, you will most likely related to the two main characters in this delightful story. While they may live only a few blocks apart and work in the same place, these two characters come from very different, if similar, worlds. One is Orthodox Jewish and the other is Islamic. They are throw together under circumstances beyond their control and turn to each other because they have nobody else.

Few names on the cast will be familiar to most of us, but they did an outstanding job of casting a flawless job of acting. This movie was released as part of the Film Movement movie-of-the-month club (http://www.filmmovement.com/). It is dialogue movie as opposed to an action movie or some other style. Be prepared to sit through some uncomfortable racial, anti-Semitic, and anti-Islamic conversation. The young main characters find a way to see past each others ancient history to become comrades and eventually more.

The accents are strong with frequent lapses into languages other than English. There are no subtitles. If you can handle all that, I highly recommend this movie. Every single woman should watch this movie. Every family with daughters should watch this movie; regardless of their religion.

Watch this with someone who gives you an electric-like spark every time you touch.
