This week, we discuss two films featuring cross-cultural relationships involving Arab immigrants.
The first is The Visitor (2007), starring Richard Jenkins as a lonely middle-aged man who befriends a younger Palestinian-Syrian djembe drum player. Jenkins received a Best Actor nomination at the 81st Academy Awards.
The second is Ali: Fear Eats the Soul (1974), a drama from New German Cinema director Rainer Werner Fassbinder. The film, often considered his greatest work, was critically acclaimed and won 2 awards at the 1974 Cannes Film Festival.
