The special film - "Not quite kosher"

A divine comedy - three religions - two men - one camel. The special film in cooperation with the VHS Bocholt-Rhede-Isselburg. What happens when an ultra-orthodox Jew and a Muslim Bedouin get stranded in the desert.

To escape his family's matchmaking attempts in Jerusalem, Ben, a Jew, offers to fly to Alexandria to save what was once the largest Jewish community in the world. The 10th man is missing there to celebrate Passover.

After Ben first misses the plane and then flies off the bus in the Sinai desert, Adel, a grumpy Bedouin looking for his lost camel, becomes Ben's last hope.

They can only move forward together, but how do you combine ultra-orthodox religious practices with Bedouin pragmatism from the heart of the desert? Soon it's no longer just about eating together, but about bare survival.
