Only Human

Writer-directors Dominic Harari and Teresa Pelegri have penned an amusing script and, as directors, inject a delicate human texture into the story's intermixing of capricious zaniness, frank sensuality and Mideast politics.

There's a political and social clash at its core, but the laughter comes from a deeper, human place (see title).

A familiar situation of a beloved daughter bringing her intended home to meet the folks is pushed to sublimely silly extremes.

The film doesn't take sides, but instead looks at each character in the story and playfully reveals their strengths and weaknesses.
