Holiday: Sukkot .

Description: Powerful, touching and amusing, Ushpizin (Guests) is a heartwarming and soul-stirring film. Big-hearted Moshe Bellanga is down on his luck, so he and his loving wife Malli pray passionately for a miracle. Their prayers are answered in the form of a large sum of money that mysteriously lands on their doorstep. But the great "gift" leads to the arrival of two uninvited ushpizin, and Moshe and Malli are left wondering have they found God's favor or is this just a test of their devotion. -- from box
