Berlin (dpa) - The 16th Jewish Film Festival in Berlin and Potsdam got underway at the city's Astor Film Lounge Sunday with the German premiere of French director Jean-Jaques Zilbermann's zany comedy, La Folle Histoire D'Amour de Simon Eskenazy (He's My Girl).

The role of Simon, a gay Jewish clarinet player who was the main character in the director's 1998 movie, Man is a Woman, is again played by Antoine de Caunes.

This time round, Simon falls in love with Naim (Mehdi Dehbi), a transsexual Arab who works as a waiter in Paris. When Simon's ill mother moves in with her son, the impetuous Naim pretends to be a nurse and moves in too, in order to get on the mother's good side.
