Description:
A lonely Muslim boy growing up in Brooklyn is inadvertently immersed in the world of Orthodox Judaism in this tender drama that bridges culture and religion. The only son of a devout imam, 11-year old Daud (Muatasem Mishal) juggles the high expectations of his father (Maz Jobrani) against feelings of isolation. There is no time for playmates, until one day Daud is mistaken for a Yeshiva student and befriended by a group of Jewish boys. Unable to resist a newfound camaraderie and freedom, Daud becomes David. The ruse soon unravels, however, leaving the conflicted boy struggling to find his place in the world. Filmed on location in Bay Ridge and Borough Park with first-time Arab and Jewish actors, DAVID won the Brooklyn International Film Festival Audience Award and Montreal World Film Festival Ecumenical Prize.
