About this movie

You see a lemon ...they see a Miracle! Moshe and Malli are the picture perfect models of a happy, loving, devoted, married Jewish couple. One problem, they are dead broke! Diving deep into their Orthodox faith, they pray for help. But instead of a miracle, they are sent two devious escaped convicts. Seeing this as a test, Moshe and Malli make it their task to turn these strangers from unwelcome visitors into honored guests. "Gentle and affecting, it offers an introduction to a mostly unfamiliar world while touching on issues recognizable to all."

Unique film experience. Great insight into Jewish religious culture focusing on the living out of love and trust in God as a married couple. Well-developed characters that are authentically portrayed, even with their weaknesses and failings.
