The Syrian Bride (2004; 1 hour and 37 minutes) (Available on YouTube at https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=QN8gYDrkNB4) Mona, a Druze bride-to-be, lives in a village on the border of Israel and Syria. Her father, political leader Hammed, wants her to marry a Syrian comedian, but her move to Syria would likely be a permanent one, considering the political unrest between the two countries. The wedding planning is a nightmare, and tensions are high -- especially when Mona's siblings, who have moved on to new countries and complicated relationships, come home before the big day.
