British comedy about Mahmud (Omid Djalili), a Muslim who finds out that not only was he adopted but that his birth parents are Jewish. Although he is not devout, his son is to marry the step-daughter of a radical Pakistani cleric who would not look favorably on his Hebrew heritage. Also, Mahmud wants to meet his birth father who is on his death bed. However a militant Rabbi (Matt Lucas) will not let him in to see his dying dad until he can show that he has embraced the Jewish religion. Cue training scene with Mahmud's new best friend Lenny (Richard Schiff).
