2019 Film Festival
film synopsis
After successfully sabotaging another of her parents' arranged marriage setups, the ever-charming and rebellious Nousha (delightful breakout star Tara Grammy) seems destined for singledom. Even the constant barrage of questionably sexy photos of bachelor sons from her mother Ziba's (Shohreh Aghdashloo) friends doesn't seem to do the trick. But Cupid's arrow is waiting in the wings when Nousha meet-cutes the artsy Alex (Christopher O'Shea) at a feminist protest. Their secret tryst and cohabitation can be kept under wraps for only so long before her parents call for the wedding bells to ring. As two very different cultures and families collide, Nousha and Alex quickly learn that this wedding will be anything but simple. Produced by and co-starring Rita Wilson (My Big Fat Greek Wedding), the uproarious debut feature from Sara Zandieh presents an authentic and diverse look at finding love in this day and age, and all the complications and highs that come with it.
