"Captain Abu Raed" Highly recommended

Watched it tonight. Excellent story and acting. I loved this movie! Here's the Netflix summary:

Airport janitor Abu Raed (Nadim Sawalha) has long wanted to travel the world, but he's had to settle for imagined experiences through books and conversations. When a group of children mistakes him for a pilot, he captivates them with made-up tales of adventure. As he begins to form close friendships with these poor neighborhood kids, it dawns on him just how challenging their lives really are. This foreign drama won the 2008 Sundance Audience Award for World Cinema.
