Tala, a London-based Jordanian of Palestinian origin prepares for an elaborate wedding with her Jordanian fiancé, when she encounters Leyla, a young British Indian woman who is dating her best friend Ali. Spirited Christian Tala and shy Muslim Leyla could not be more different from each other but the attraction is immediate. Tala's feisty nature provokes Leyla out of her shell and soon both women reveal their feelings for each other. But Tala is not ready to accept the implications of the choice her heart has made and escapes back to Jordan where her chain-smoking high-brow mother finishes preparations for an ostentatious wedding.

As family members descend and the wedding day approaches, simmering family tensions come to a boiling point and the pressure mounts for Tala to be true to herself. Meanwhile heartbroken Leyla relishes her newly found sense of identity and self-respect and moves on with her new life – much to the shock of her tradition-loving Indian parents. Single again, Tala flies back to London – but it will take more than just a date set up by Ali and Leyla's sister Zara to win Leyla back.

Obviously, it goes without saying how the two lead actresses and their love story are beyond beautiful and a joy to watch. However, not nearly enough is said about the supporting cast of characters. The two subsequent families, their dynamics, their political and cultural banter and especially the two mothers, take this already great store movie and elevate it to the next level. 👏👏

Amazing, the story line and the underlying chemistry between the two actresses is phenomenal. I look forward to more novels and movie by Shamin Sharif. I've watched this movie over a 100 times and it always brings out the hopeful romantic.

Love the two lead actresses in this movie and there other movie they have.the chemistry between them on screen is so believable that you would think they were a real couple
