This is a great film I found made by the BBC, it was a made for television movie so it is not available on DVD yet. It's about a white family in England that moves from an abusive boyfriend to a refuge in a coincidentally Muslim majority city.


A very touching film, it has no subtitles and may be hard for those who dont speak English natively.

There is some bad language, and some nudity.
PG-13 rating. There are red boxes as warnings of scenes ahead of time!

Someone has graciously put it on Youtube in 9 parts! If you look to the right, there are links for all parts of the video.
Part 1: http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=dbYADp56lDc

I just finish it!
OMG at first i was like "how could they!" hated how bad they were to the Muslims!
I hated how stupid the mom was!
I hated Leah at first, then i was like eek wow, good job!
I was ROFL in real live when the father came in the store and Leah start to say Qu'ran! It was so fuuny to see the dad going " what the heck is she doing"!
I hope more people make more movie like this!

Thanks so much for sharing! blaugh

That was amazing! eek It was really sad too. I was so happy when the mother finally made the decision to get rid of him (hopefully for good). Leah was such an interesting character. She went from a closed minded brat to one of the most mature characters in the film.
