"A film by Ra'anan Alexandrowicz. A cannily droll mix of social commentary and modern fairy tale, Israeli filmmaker Ra�anan Alexandrowicz�s debut feature follows the adventures of James, a devout Christian making a pilgrimage from his African village to the Holy Land. He becomes part of the migrant labor workforce in Tel Aviv and pursues his religious quest�until he gets a little taste of fortune by turning the tables on his employers. With a moving and charismatic performance by South African actor Siyabonga Melongisi Shibe, JAMES� JOURNEY TO JERUSALEM is an astute exploration of the economic, moral and spiritual hypocrisies of Western society filtered through an evocative portrait of modern Israel�s cultural and generational divisions."
