Me Buddy, Muhammad är en stark film om vänskapen mellan en ung irländsk pojke och en ung muslimsk pojke. Muhammad och Antos vänskap startar i en skolgård och får effekter som förändrar båda deras liv. Filmen kastar en blick på den multikulturella element som är allt mer framträdande i dagens Irland, ett land som tidigare hade striktare idéer kring irländsk identitet. Den belyser frågor kring multikulturalism, integration, immigration och gör det genom ett barns neutrala ögon.
Me Buddy, Muhammad’ is a short film about the friendship between a young (Irish) boy and a young Muslim boy. Muhammad and Anto’s friendship starts in the playground of an inner city Dublin school and soon causes changes in both of their lives. The friendship between Muhammad and Anto is the lens that casts a look at the multicultural elements that are becoming more prevalent in Ireland, a country that in the past has had strict ideas about what it is to be “Irish”. Looking at the subject of multiculturalism, integration, immigration through the eyes of children serves to present a fresh, unbiased view of what it is to form personal relationships that are based on shared ideas, likes and thoughts. Muhammad and Anto’s friendship is not effected by their differences i.e race, religious affiliation etc. , it is formed through innocence. Their friendship allows each other to explore the different elements of two very different cultures without causing them to exist separately.
