The son of the Imam of the local Brooklyn mosque befriends a group of Jewish boys, who mistake him for a fellow classmate.

Winner of the Ecumenical Prize (Montreal World Film Festival) and the “Audience Award” at Brooklyn Film Festival

“Bridging one of the world’s defining sociopolitical rifts one 11-year-old at a time, quietly engaging indie DAVID brings charm, sympathy and understatement to its microcosmic story of a young Muslim Brooklynite whose circumstances lead him to pass as Jewish.”
