Nicht ganz koscher - eine göttliche Komödie (Stefan Sarazin, Peter Keller)

Three religions. Two men. One mission. Ben has gone off into the desert. In order to escape the matchmaking attempts of his family in Jerusalem, he agrees to fly to Alexandria to save what was once the largest Jewish community in the world, which is desperately short of a tenth man to celebrate Passover. When Ben misses his flight and is subsequently thrown off a bus in the Sinai Desert, a grumpy Bedouin in search of his lost camel becomes Ben’s only hope. For both men, the only way forward is together, but how can the ultra-Orthodox religious practices of someone from Brooklyn be reconciled with the pragmatism of a Bedouin from the middle of the desert? When their car breaks down, it’s no longer just a matter of sharing a meal, but of survival.
