Product Information
A devoted Muslim family man experiences a hilarious identity crisis after discovering that he was adopted at birth, and his real name is Solly Shimshillewitz. Mahmud Nasir (Omid Djalili) is still grieving the recent death of his mother when he finds his birth certificate, and learns he was born to a Jewish mother. In order to embrace his heritage, Mahmud seeks the advice of drunken cab-driver Lenny (Richard Schiff), whose crash course in Judaism is more quirky than kosher.Product Identifiers

ReviewsThis Is London - A laugh-along moral drama that brings a great big dose of enlivening absurdity and comic brilliance to a taboo subject [...], Empire Magazine - Funny and unthreatening [...] it's plenty of fun., The Hollywood Reporter - The two leads make a terrific comic team, with Djalili'a deadpan style of physical humor perfectly complementing Schiff's hilarious, fast-paced wisecracking., New York Times - The director, Josh Appignanesi, has a nice sense of comic timing, slipping in some of the best jokes when you least expect them [...] An amusing little film from Britain.
