7/10
Two Israeli friends travel in an American-made limousine to Germany, hoping to sell it there to make a fortune.

It's a 2004 film & i only get to see it tonight ( 10th September 2009) in conjunction with Israel- Film-Festival in Singapore. It is a film with poignant human emotions. Most of us know about how the Jews of Israel suffer under the Nazi-Germans during the Holocaust. If you and your ancestors have traumatic memories of the Holocaust, would you choose to go there to make a fortune or even migrate to Germany with your family for a better life? How would you think about the younger Germans there will interact with you? You may be surprised if you answer the questions with pre-conceived notions. It's not as straight-forward as a story about forgiveness, mercy & redemption. Do go for it with an open-mind if you happen to bump into its screening just as i do. I'm moved to tears as it make me realise that life's setbacks and unpredictable circumstances can point towards our shared humanity.
