We watched this on DVD at the weekend. I had managed to miss it at the cinema.
It is the first film by Eran Kolirins and is about an Egyptian band invited to play in Israel but who manage to get on the wrong flight.
After that it is a closely observed film of gentle humour and great humanity.
It's also pretty short, just 80-something minutes, I think, and never once out-stays its welcome.
Very enjoyable and well worth seeing.
