Shouf Shouf Habibi!
High-spirited Abdullah is a 20 year-old Arab Muslim living in Holland with his Moroccan parents. He has a number of problems to solve. Should he buckle under to his conservative parent's traditions, can he become a Hollywood movie star, should he rob a bank with his friends? Obviously an arranged marriage to a girl from the old village could be a solution. This is a light-hearted comedy about cultural clashes, racism, fitting in and growing up.
