An Egyptian police band gets stranded in an Israeli desert town in this warm and delightful take on cross-cultural relations. When their host fails to turn up at the airport, they take a bus to the town they're supposed to be playing. Not only isn't it much of a place, it's also not where they're meant to be...and the last bus has just left.

With a cast of colourful characters, this charming and hugely entertaining film has won the hearts of audiences worldwide.

 

A post show disussion with film programmer Patrick Bliss will follow this evening's screening.
