The Band's Visit (Bikur Ha-Tizmoret) (2008)
description written by member Zara:
Once, not long ago, a small Egyptian Police band arrived in Israel. They came to play at an initiation ceremony but, due to bureacracy, bad luck, or for whatever reason, they were left stranded at the airport. They tried to manage on their own, only to find themselves in a desolate, almost forgotten small Israeli town, somewhere in the heart of the desert. A lost band in a lost town. Not many people remember this.

It is certainly one of the funniest films I have...
