Full Plot Details

Based in a London suburb Mahmud Nasir lives with his pretty wife, Saamiya, and two children, Rashid and Nabi. His son plans to marry Uzma, the step-daughter of Egyptian-born Arshad Al-Masri, a so-called 'Hate Cleric' from Waziristan, Pakistan. Mahmud, who is not exactly a devout Muslim, he drinks alcohol, and does not pray five times, but does agree that he will appease Arshad, without whose approval the marriage cannot take place. Shortly thereafter Mahmud, while going over his recently deceased mother's documents, will find out that he was adopted, his birth parents were Jewish, and his name is actually Solly Shimshillewitz. He conceals this information from his family, and with the help of his neighbor, Leonard Goldberg, tries to understand the Jews, their religion and even locates his birth-father, who is on his death-bed in a nursing home. Mahmud does not know that Arshad has been checking into his background, has videotaped him setting fire to a Jewish cap during a protest, and has already approved of him, despite of his letter to the media about 'moderate Muslims'. But on the day of the meeting with Arshad and Uzma - Mahmud will find his life drastically changed when the Police will attend to arrest him, and he will be forced to publicly proclaim that he is Jewish - a move that will not only alienate him from his family but both the Jewish and Muslim communities.

Movie Reviews

The Sun (UK) - 8/10 by Alex ZaneThankfully, the sometimes muddled message on religion is propped up by good gags, such as a running joke about hating people who do quotation marks with their fingers.
News of the World - 8/10 by Robbie CollinThe Infidel's got some great gags -- most of which have a stand-up routine kind of feel -- but a hopelessly contrived climax saps it of any real satirical bite.
London Evening Standard - 8/10 by Andrew O'HaganA laugh-along moral drama that brings a great big dose of enlivening absurdity and comic brilliance to a taboo subject, the hostility between British Muslims and Jews.
The New York Times - 7/10 by Neil GenzlingerThe director, Josh Appignanesi, has a nice sense of comic timing, slipping in some of the best jokes when you least expect them.
Monsters and Critics - 7/10 by Ron WilkinsonThe truth comes out and the audience is left to wonder what it all means.
The Spectator - 7/10 by Deborah RossThe Infidel just doesn't cut it as a drama, a comedy, a satire or anything bar a rather dull cartoonish farce.
Film-Forward.com - 6/10 by Kent TurnerSome of the punch lines land better than others, and the script keeps them coming.
What Would Toto Watch? - 6/10 by Christian TotoCan't we all just coexist? The Infidel can't bring the laughs, but it's a subtle peek at scapegoating on all sides.
Empire - 6/10 by Liz BeardsworthFunny and unthreatening, it's not subversive but it's plenty of fun.
sbs.com.au - 6/10 by Craig MathiesonThis pleasing comedy more than makes do with the idea of conciliation -- it really, really just wants us to get along.
