I'm semi-watching the Oscars while I'm studying, and the film West Bank Story just won an Oscar for Best Short Feature. I HAVE GOT TO SEE THIS FILM! It's only 20 minutes, and basically it's a West Bank story of two competing falafel stands, one owned by Israelis, the other Palestinians. It's a retelling of West Side Story/Romeo & Juliet. Oh, man! The clip they showed was so funny!

http://www.imdb.com/title/tt0438575/

Unfortunately the main site for the film seems to be down right not.

Glad to help! You're not too far off, it looked like they were showing Hasidic Jews and Palestinians doing routines reminiscent of the Jets and the Sharks. I REALLY want to see this!

Aaaarrrgh! Now I have to either gouge my eyes out or watch some porn to rid myself of those images!

No! Now I see Palistinean woman who are suicide bombers, using (ahem) sticks of dynamite before using those sticks of dynamite! Gah!

May I recommend Breast Side Story for all your eye purging needs.
