Misplaced assumptions, games of chance, faith, loss and redemption enclosed in this film by documentarian Ra'anan Alexandrowicz. The film balances the harsh realities in a small nondescript Israeli town area near Jerusalem (unfair work conditions, discrimination, racism, religion, religion as a business, corruption) with the impending ruin of Zulu village import James’s religious belief, to be a reverend and have a life experience in the Holy Land. The film’s style is a little raw but well acted and effective. The ending is bittersweet and much more potent than initially anticipated.
