In the early 1960s in Paris, in a working class neighborhood, two unlikely characters—a young Jew, Momo (Pierre Boulanger) and an elderly Muslim, Ibrahim (Omar Sharif)—begin a friendship. Momo is effectively an orphan despite living with his father, a man imprisoned by crippling depression. Ibrahim, who runs a neighborhood shop, sees and knows more than he lets on. When Momo is abandoned by his father, Ibrahim becomes the one grown-up in Momo’s life and together they begin a journey that will change their lives forever. (Fully subtitled) Official Web Site
