Momo doesn't have much going for him; growing up in a poor neighborhood, his mother is dead and his father has given up parenting. When he's caught stealing groceries on a whim, the shopkeeper declines to call the police and takes the boy under his wing, teaching him about life and about being a man. Monsieur Ibrahim features a graceful performance by Omar Sharif and has a 69 percent rating at Metacritic.
