Only Human (2004)
(Seres humanos)
Country: SP/GB/ARG/PORT
Technical: col 89m
Director: Teresa de Pelegrí, Dominic Harari
Cast: Norma Aleandro, Guillermo Toledo, Marío Botto, Marián Aguilera
Synopsis:
A Spanish Jewess takes her Palestinian boyfriend home to meet the family and has not even broached the sensitive topic of his nationality before he has dropped the frozen soup on her father's head and killed him (apparently).
Review:
Funnier than Meet the Parents because the family themselves are all eccentrics with problems of their own to work out, this energetic comedy observes unity of time and action and keeps the laughter appetisingly poised around various serious issues such as the Middle Eastern question.
