SUMMARY:Amreeka - Stouffville Film Circuit
DESCRIPTION:One of the most talked-about works at the 2009 Sundance Film Festival, Amreeka is a stunning addition to the genre known as social realism – those films that employ largely unknown or non-actors to convey situations reflecting some of the more sobering, harsh realities of the world today. This humanistic film is deeply touching on many levels.    New York-based filmmaker Cherien Dabis was born to Palestinian-Jordanian immigrants, and her remarkable first feature tells a story very close to home. The narrative revolves around protagonist Muna, a Palestinian woman who is happy to get a green card to the United States and thereby leave her West Bank home. She sets off with her teenaged son, Fadi, and settles in small-town Illinois with her sister’s family.
