Short summary
Casablanca and Chicago are Sister Cities, both have been promoting friendship and common goals for decades.
After 9-11, some former US Ambassadors decided to find a way to examine how the Arab world views the U.S., and how we in the U.S. view them. Interviewing Chicagoans in Casablanca, and Casablancans in Chicago, filmmaker Richard Martini digs into the differences between the cultures, as well as the amazing similarities. Also, interviews with a female judge, a female member of Parliament in Morocco, as well as a female soybean trader at The Chicago Board of Trade highlight the similarities we don't normally see or pay attention to. The hour long documentary is narrated by Sally Kellerman
Film was shot in Chicago and Casablanca. Mayor Daley says "Most people don't understand Chicago is a melting pot, we're tolerant of all religions here in Chicago." The Imam of the major mosque in Casablanca said "Most people don't realize Casablanca is a melting pot, we're tolerant of all world religions."
