User reviews 24 Review. Top review. An overly simplistic approach.

Amreeka the Arabic word for America is a humorous and warm-hearted first feature from Cherien Dabis that follows a Palestinian woman, Muna Nisreen Faour and her sixteen-year-old son, Fadi Melkar Muallem from the checkpoints of the West Bank to the checkmates of racial animosity in a small town in Illinois near Chicago.

Set in at the start of the Iraq War, Muna leaves Bethlehem because she desires a better life for her son and can no longer put up with overbearing Israeli police, the harangues of her elderly mother, and reminders of her philandering ex-husband.

The opening sequence in which Muna is ecstatic about receiving her Green Card in the mail and says tearful goodbyes to her family on her way to America joyously captures the closeness of family and their caring for each other in a lighthearted manner.

Unfortunately in the rest of the film things do not go as well for the young family. They have to deal with numerous incidents of overt and covert racism including bullying at school as they try to adjust to a new home and a new country. Things start off badly when Muna and Fadi are harassed for three hours at the airport by Israeli customs and a tin box filled with cookies and all of their savings are handed over by Fadi to customs officials.

Fadi does not say anything to his mother about this a most unlikely circumstance and the loss is only discovered after the two arrive at the home of relatives in Illinois. From there, things go steadily south. Muna tries to get a job in her profession in a bank but is rejected by employers who look at all Arabs as potential terrorists. Ending up working at a burger joint, Muna conceals her employment from her relatives, pretending to work at a bank close to the restaurant, but her shame is apparent.

Meanwhile Fadi is tormented by school bullies who call him Osama and her relatives begin to bicker over their increased expenses at the time when the family breadwinner, a physician Yussef Abu Warda , is losing clients because of his Arab appearance. While people need to be reminded of the hurt of racism and the Arabs contribution to the world, Amreeka offers one contrived subplot after another in which Americans are caricatures of either hate-filled racists or Christ-like saviors like Mr.

Novatski Joseph Ziegler , Fadi's principal who happens to be Jewish. There is no mention of , issues involved in the Israeli-Palestinian conflict, or the problem of bullying in schools, and the possibility of involving teachers, school officials, or even the neighborhood church in helping the immigrant family to cope are not examined. While Amreeka has moments of charm and likability and the performances are excellent, the exercise quickly becomes a big screen version of "As the World Turns", doomed by an overly simplistic approach in which victimization substitutes for cooperation in finding solutions.

Class bully Mike chooses Muslim 'hence terrorist' Fadi as his gang's new whipping boy, which gets totally out of hand at the diner where Muna took a waitress job.

Amreeka Dabis, is the story of a mother, Muna, and her son, Fadi, and their transition from Palestine to America in the early s. Muna, who is recently divorced, is a well educated woman who works hard to make sure she can send her son to a private school. Even though the Iraq war has caused trouble in her hometown, Muna braves the checkpoints and soldiers and drives two hours every day to get her son to school. When the opportunity presents itself, Muna and Fadi move to the United States so that Fadi can get an American education.

They move in with Muna's sister, Raghda, and her doctor husband, and even though Muna had 10 years of experience in the banking industry in Palestine, the only job she can find is at the local White Castle.

Even though the family are Palestinian Christians, they are often perceived as potential Muslim terrorists. When Fadi is faced with the fear and ignorance of the students around him, he grows bitter toward his new environment. He gets into a fight with one of his classmates after the boy caused his mother to slip at work and hurt her back.

This is Fadi's lowest point. His mother brings him home from jail and teaches him that no matter what ignorant things people might say or think about him, he must hold his head high and be proud of his heritage.
