Letters from My New Home (2009)

In a time when Arab and American societies are clashing, an Arab-American turns to his aging grandmother in Lebanon to learn about his family and country of origin. Her account of those stories inspire his challenging and at times humorous journey to save money in order to finance, plan and orchestrate a once in a lifetime film shoot in Lebanon. By reuniting his family to create a film starring his grandmother, he will come to grips with his Arab roots and his life in the richest and most influential country in the world.
