| The Infidel | comment |
A British comedy (written by David Baddiel and starring Omid Djalili) released in 2010, that explores one of the most important and relevant questions of our time: what if, one day, you woke up and found that everything you thought you knew about yourself was a lie?As the film opens our protagonist, Mahmud Nasir, is preparing to meet the stepfather of his son's fiancee Uzma, a radical cleric from Pakistan named Arshad al-Masri. In order to obtain Arshad's blessing for the marriage, Mahmud agrees to pretend to be a devout Muslim for a few days. There are only two problems with this arrangement. The first is that Mahmud has a history of not being particularly devout. The second is that he has just found out he was adopted and that his birth parents are Jewish.Advertisement:propertag.cmd.push(function() { proper_display('tvtropes_mobile_ad_1'); })Mahmud sets out to rediscover his identity and reconcile the two conflicting worlds that he now finds himself in, while simultaneously fending off the suspicions of, well, pretty much everybody. Thus, Hilarity Ensues. | |

Boomerang Bigot: Lenny is something of a self-hating Jew. He also does not consider Israelis to be real Jews because they are not ashamed to be Jewish. Fundamentalist Arshad dislikes non-Muslims yet he is actually a former Scientologist. | |

| The Infidel / int_7f6a0b31 | comment |
All Jews Are Ashkenazi: Mahmud has an Ashkenazi background in spite of the fact that he's played by a Persian actor. The film does explore many different Jewish communities, however. | |
