Romeo Eleven

2011 · 100 min

A quiet, intimate character study that unfolds with gentle tension as a lonely young man navigates family pressure and the risk of being seen.

Overview: Rami, a young man who lives with his Lebanese family in Montreal, walks with a debilitating limp. His controlling father, Ziad, insists on making Rami's choices for him. Ziad wants Rami to enroll in business school, but Rami, who is lonely and a bit of a dreamer, doesn't have his heart in it. When a young woman Rami's met online suggests they meet in person, he hatches a plan to pass himself off as Romeo, the businessman persona he assumes online.
