Monsieur Ibrahim and the flowers of the Koran

A french movie with a graceful and charming performance by Omar Sharif and the boy is simply and incredibly adorable.

Ibrahim (Muslim Sufi from Turkey), a grocery shop owner and Moses (Jewish) who lives in the neighbourhood befriend one another.

This is a beautiful film, deeply affectionate and displays a deep relationship between the old man and the young boy. Although one is Muslim and the other is Jewish, the discussion of religion in itself is minimal and passive which makes it all the better.

I'd love to write about the story but that would spoil it for those who would like to see it. I give this 8/10 which is really good because I tend to be very critical.
