Back to David & Layla - David (David Moscow), the host of local cable show Sex and Happiness, becomes smitten with the mysterious and exotic Layla (Shiva Rose), a Kurdish Muslim refugee whose visa has expired. Unfulfilled in his relationship with a high-strung girlfriend (Callie Thorne), he desperately pursues Layla, despite the hysteria it causes in his Jewish family and the suspicions of her Islamic guardians. As the two lovers get to know each other better, the clash of cultures and religions raises its ugly — well, not ugly ... let's say — inconvenient head. (Jeff Meyers of Metro Times)

Once David and Layla begin to explore the obstacles in their respective cultures and beliefs, complex issues of identity, politics and history begin to show. We applaud Mr. Jonroy on his bold new film and we are excited to introduce it to our users! The film is currently playing in Washington, DC (Dupont Circle and Shirlington) and also in Florida and Ann Arbor, Michigan - so get out and see it if you're in the area!
