Synopsis: Atom Egoyan (THE SWEET HEREAFTER) executive produces this engaging romance about culture clash in Canada. Sabah (Arsinée Khanjian, CODE UNKNOWN), a Syrian immigrant in Toronto, falls in love with a Canadian carpenter who shares neither her heritage nor her family's Muslim beliefs. As their relationship grows, Sabah tries harder to conceal the romance from her traditional family, but she can't hide their love forever. With echoes of MISSISSPPI MASALA and GUESS WHO'S COMING TO DINNER, this film from director Ruba Nadda explores interracial romance with humor and intelligence.
