Another night, another Jewish film festival movie, this one a documentary about an 21 year old Ethiopian Jewish man In Israel, who learns that his "parents" are his foster parents, that his "aunt" (who died) was his mother, and that his father (who did not marry his mother because he was drafted into the Ethiopian army) was still in Ethiopia. It is a story of the boy and father meeting for the first time, and about everyone's reaction.
The upshot? Believe it or not, Ethiopians are people, too.
(By the way, this is an important message).
Nice movie.
