Jan, a young Norwegian, has fallen in love with Jasmin, and she loves him too. So far, so good. But Jasmin comes from a Pakistani family and has already been promised to her cousin in Pakistan, who will soon be coming to Norway to marry her. Claiming to be writing an academic report about immigrant shopkeepers, Jan takes a job in the shop run by Jasmin’s father Allahditta and her brother-in-law Yousaf. Yousaf agrees to help Jan convert to Islam in exchange for Jan helping Yousaf to pass his taxi-driving test. At the same time, Jan tries to soften up Allahditta’s hardline views on mixed-race marriages. Like many first-generation immigrants, Allahditta strongly disapproves of such liaisons – at least to begin with. “Import Export” is a romantic comedy, and the first feature film to paint a realistic portrait of the Pakistani community in Oslo. It succeeds in creating an entertaining portrayal and plausible resolution of an intercultural conflict.
