David & Layla
in Compétition Officielle Internationale
American English original, sous titres Français
From an impossible romance, a hope (or a fantasy!) for peace
«Congratulations to Jay Jonroy for succeeding in making such a bold, politically relevant film against impossible industry odds...†-  Harold Pinter, London playwright/screenwriter/actor/director, Nobel Laureate for Literature 2005
Star-crossed lovers David & Layla: Romeo & Juliet in New York with a twist- spice, comedy & politics...via Iraq, Kurdistan & Jerusalem!
"This new comedy about young loves and the large ethnic families (on both sides) that stand between them could have been just another My Big Fat Greek Wedding, but its originality and insight set it apart... David and Layla is a superior variation on that film, with unexpected insights...†-  Joe Baltake
 
 «...an earnest, frequently funny comedy about stateless persons... and the looming clichés that make Muslims and Jews so wary of each other.  Painless intro to the customs and attitudes surrounding two of the world's great religions is a natural...  Shiva Rose (Layla) excels as a self-reliant damsel in distress worth rooting for."  - Lisa Nesselson, VARIETY
