Who Shot Romeo and Juliet? Bian's David & Fatima (2008)

The 2008 independent film David & Fatima sets Romeo and
Juliet in Jerusalem and frames the story as a microcosm of the
longstanding religious and ethnic conflicts in the region.
Producer Luigi (Kari) Bian and director Alain Zaloum’s
combination of  history, social commentary, and romance
swings between cliché and profund. However, the narrative
decisions that openly defy the original text offer an interesting
perspective on the Shakespearean philosophy of fate and the
inevitability of star-crossed lovers.
