2023, 120 min., Germany, English To save the once-largest Jewish community in the world from being shut down in Alexandria, Egypt, an ultra-orthodox Brooklyn Jew, Ben, is sent out to be the desperately needed tenth man to celebrate Passover in this heartwarming tale. But when he misses his flight and gets stranded in the middle of the Sinai desert after being kicked off a bus, he finds himself in a perilous situation. His only hope arrives in the form of a grumpy Bedouin man in search of his lost camel. In an endearing twist of fate, these two men must overcome their differences and learn to work together to survive. Winner of several international prizes, this comedy wrings plenty of emotion and joy from a most unlikely friendship. Directors: Stefan Sarazin & Peter Keller. Cohosted by 518 KOSHER
