[Gordingracht]

stupid how American directors depict arabs as the enemy of every war film. and in this film you see none of that. just goes to show non muslims dont know how to depict a good movie with muslims in them except this one.

[thefatsailor]

All the hate crimes against Arabs after 911?....Ah... I think America showed great restraint after 911 concerning hate crimes aginst Arabs.  I would like to have some specifics here. I think she is talking out of her butt her.

I saw the film and I love it.

[bobboulos]

I can't stand some comments written on this video about suicide bombings, COME ON PEOPLE look at the BIG PICTURE... Can you not see what ISRA-HELL (quoting) is doing to the people and innocent people of Palestine ? Come on check google , check youtube for ISRAELI MASSACRES done on the Palestinian people.. stop being so illiterate and ignorant americans.. GOD!

[SaoMir1]

The mother is soooooo funny.

i love the way she innocently says stuff with a beautiful smile and doesn't realize what she said

[andtheniwas]

a palestinian is nothing but a professional refugee. what does it say that none others will help them. enough said

[oooNUUBAooo]

BEAUTIFUL movie!!! :)

[mozaks80]

It's good that the other side of battle is being heard, not just the racist inhumane israelis. Great movie. *****

[cutecolor]

the movie is not about immigrants !

it's not about 9/11

it's not about arabs in the US

it's not about the arab-israeli conflict

it's not about occupation

it's about all of the presious

It did touch my heart in a way that in some scenes I was laughing AND crying at the same freakin time !

[MOBYLEEful]

[grekito]

@andtheniwas Shut Up!

[vintage217]

you pathetic Israhell sympathizers go kill some babies and make t shirts of it, cause that's the best thing you can do with 4 billion dollars "Amreeka" shoves up your ass every year. Seriously you people are brutal, delusional and absolutely pathetic and need a reality check. And enough with you lies about how Israhell is a victim.

SHAME ON YOU!

[gaiagale]

Saw this a week ago ...why again?!?!

[peeps6901]

FUCK ADDS.

[BabelOn4infinity]

jewish-extremist

[ParadiseZion]

I'd rather watch a B action movie or a porno.

kidding

[TRUTHvsDECEPTION]

I have not seen the whole movie , But I have feeling that what good will come out of Hollywood Israel Vs. Poor Palestine.

Injustice of this issue throw my mind back to the stone age stories.

[3martijns]

They don't tell about Arabs firing thousands of missiles into Israel.

[EJLfilms]

Movies like this brainwashes people.... Just like the whole fucking corrupt Hollywood. Now you know

[vamvam001]

You know what there is an essay about

"BORN IN AMRIKA" BY MONA MAISAMI that can be found in one of ROBERT DIYANNI 'MAKING IT WORK.' The story of this documentary is quite the same as the essay.. Now im confused because the director claimed that she wrote the story.. If any one can clarify this, it will be greatly appreciated. thanks

[supersetan2008]

where i can buy the movie?

[leekymkween]

Amreeka releases in NYC and LA on September 4, 2009.

[tiuric77]

HAHAHAH!! It's so funny all the film makers I know always joke about how they are really sick of reading crappy screenplays about So and so's aunt who imigrated from the Ukrain or whatever. We concider that garbage unimaginative film making. Then I see this interview and that's what the movie is about.

[Metalstr8jacket]

Seems like it will be an interesting film, and Yeah, The Director is beautiful!!

[d23lvp]

Orika--> I don't think that was the point. The comment was that the Israelis are doing the same things to the Palestinians as was done to them in Europe. Which is true to an extent. The Palestinians are reacting a different way than the Jews did to the Holocaust.

[d23lvp]

excuse me? how do you know where I have and haven't been? i have traveled in the region extensively and have many good friends living in Israel, West Bank, Lebanon, Saudi Arabia, and Egypt. You misinterpreted a comment so I clarified. I'm not saying that what was said is either right or wrong, I'm simply stating facts.

[cannoir]

she is a hottie. she could be Rachel Weisz's doppelganger

[SubtleChanger]

interesting perspective

[mail4male]

where & when can one watch this movie?

surely it is not going to be on fox movie channel?

[walid266]

good job dabis.

[6166789]

this filmmaker is a douche. fucking sort out your mental confusion. better yet, buy a gun and do yourself. please

[kuruptedchild]

she's BEAUTIFUL!l!!..

[Yaalah]

Cont'd

the direct result of their respective Arab brethren keeping them that way.

This physically gorgeous director has successfully transported the lies told in Arab lands to Nat Geo.

Still, this video gets 5 stars for its 1) portrayal of an immigrant family's plight, and 2) for its director's sheer beauty!

[faraz875]

this move gives the same msg all holocaust movies give...how much a group of ppl hav suffered. israelis are doin the same with arabs with wht was done to them in europe...there is no justification for their actions..i agree palestinians arent the ebst ppl and they havent dealt with their problems properly...but hav fair judgement dont think they are the ones to blame for everything.

[Orika176]

Israel is doing the same that has done to them in Europe? Oh really? Have you ever heard obout a Jew in Germany that bombed himself inside a bus full of school children? Or in a holiday dinner? Or launched a single rocket towars a German street? Cause I haven't.

[greatscott192000]

i think faraz was referring to the holocaust. not exactly at the same scale, but israel has committed many injustices to the palestinians. the big separation barrier that pretty much cuts off palestinians from well, everything for one. the settlements in palestine being another, and although suicide bombings are wrong, the israeli response (airstrike in a populated area) often kills as many (sometimes more) innocent people as suicide bombings.

[Orika176]

Ok, so according to you it's wrong to block the Palestinians' view, but it's ok for them to bomb themselves in our streets / malls / restaurants / busses and kill 1500 people, from whom 500 are children. Now with this wall there are almost no suicide bombers and so Israel doesn't need to respond. You're basically contradicting yourself.

[minskfalastine]

But they Bomb because Israel Overtook them for No Reason

Israel deserve to die

Even if in this world if We don't win

We will Win in the Next because the Zionists shall burn in Hell

As we Bathe in roses and Fly past the sunset...

[Orika176]

Wow.. you're so intelligent, I'm amazed.

NOT.

The guy on your channel background, the FIRST leader of the glorious Palestinian civilization (lol), WAS BORN IN EGYPT!!!

[minskfalastine]

Thats what THEY say

But Thats not What HE says

You think...

He could be Born withought being Killed ...

EXACTLY

why else would he be born in egypt

[Orika176]

Ok, I really hate debating with people with IQ below 70...

[Orika176]

"Yasser Arafat was born Muhammad Abdul Rahman Abdul Raouf Arafat al-Qudwa al-Husseini on 24 August 1929 in the Egyptian capital, Cairo."

[minskfalastine]

Of wikipedia??

[blowmomomomo]

doesnt make him egyptian.

[minskfalastine]

You're Ehud Olmert

Is born on palestinian land

Called Israel??? (LOL)

But his Grandad and Other from the past couldn't have been because there was no israel

they would have been from germany or america

...

[greatscott192000]

i just said the suicide bombings are wrong. and the wall isn't just "blocking their view". they can't go anywhere or do anything or get basic supplies because that wall is there.

no suicide bombers because of the wall? not from the news i've read. israel is creating a second class group of citizens and you think it's justified so long as israel's security isn't compromised. in the end, it will only stir more hatred and resentment making the peace process that much more difficult.

[peanuts8]

i agree usually i don't but i do agree with what you said sometimes you can create monsters.....it's like when you hurt someone so much it just builds and builds until eventually the person just explodes like what palestinians do..so

[Yaalah]

2:44: "It's better than being prisoners in our own country."

1) There was never a country named 'Palestine'. The Romans named the region 'Palestine' after exiling its Jewish inhabitants to spite them by invoking their now-extinct Biblical enemy.

2) The continued inexistence of this country is the direct result of Palestinians' poor choice for leaders and the choices those leaders make.

3) The life of suffering that Palestinians endure in any and all Arab lands that they find themselves is

con't

[L0RDKS]

she is hot

[TaxEvasion]

my god this director, Cherien Dabis, is supernaturally gorgeous!!

[kissmyshoe321]

[gaiagale]

Mom is lovely! ...down to earth and innocent

[PObserver]

Zionism is racism.

[bjeh001]

This film looks like its going to be good. Beautiful actress, she really fits the motherly role.

[scorpiomooselove]

yeah, she looks uber cute simple mom

[KnightOfTejas]

the film maker must come from a prominent background. just graduated film school? probably has one or two things in her portfolio, so obviously some rich parent is producing her movie. not interested.

[MinatoNamikazeSenpai]

that comment was for Westonci.

This movie looks great!

[jbrowsingj]

I don't think I could watch this movie without crying.

[boomkablamo]

wtf is this

[Spunkette87]

can't wait to see this!

[Diasfu]

When is the movie coming out? I saw a cut way back, and it looks to be a good one!

[MinatoNamikazeSenpai]

lmao, fail.

[cyberdemon107]
