'Fordson' follows a high school football team from Dearborn, Michigan as it prepares for its big cross-town rivalry game during the last ten days of the Muslim holy month of Ramadan. The story is set at Fordson High School, a public school, which was once all white, but now boasts a 98% Arab-American population. As we follow the team on the road to victory, 'Fordson' unearths the story of a community desperately holding onto its Islamic faith while struggling to gain acceptance in post 9-11 America. 'Fordson' is an unprecedented glimpse inside the lives of a community that is home to the largest concentration of Arabs in any city outside of the Middle East, and their determination to hold on to the American Dream.
Leave your thoughts about Fordson: Faith, Fasting, Football.
| Common Sense MediaBrian CostelloExcellent docu on Muslim high school football players. |
| New York PostSara StewartComing on the eve of the 9/11 anniversary, this snapshot of middle America is a worthwhile addition to the cultural conversation. |
| Film Journal InternationalMarsha McCreadieIn this slick, professionally assembled football documentary, Muslim-American director Rashid Ghazi focuses on Arabs living in Dearborn, Michigan in a post-9/11 world. |
| The New York TimesPaul BrunickFordson, however, does not condemn the United States. It rather proudly affirms the American dream, reclaiming it for Muslims who see no conflict between their patriotism and their faith. |
| Village VoiceEric HynesThankfully, the kids' complicated impulses resist such packaging, whether they're catcalling head-scarved co-eds outside the local gas station or channeling racial resentments into extra hard hits. |
| VarietyJoe LeydonFor most of its running time, Fordson wanders far from the gridiron to offer overall impressions of a close-knit community of Arab-Americans who, in the wake of 9/11, often have found themselves targeted and stereotyped as militant Islamists or worse. |
| Washington PostStephanie MerryThe biggest travesty isn't that the movie fails to stir "Rudy"-caliber emotions. It's that there was a meaningful story hiding behind the guise of a less serious genre. |
| Slant MagazineDiego SemereneIn the documentary, the game is a make-believe war of pent-up frustrations linking race, nation, and manhood, one which teenage boys named Mohamed can actually win. |
| User ReviewBecci GEveryone should see this wonderful and enlightening film. Outstanding! |
