Drama

Mona (Clara Khoury), a Druze bride-to-be, lives in a village on the border of Israel and Syria. Her father, political leader Hammed (Makram J. Khoury), 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.

Roger Ebert
The real interest in the film enters by the side door, through supporting characters.
Slant Magazine
Touching on the destructiveness of patriarchal control and culturally entrenched prejudice, the film (...) has a knack for locating the soul of its characters in casual, fleeting moments.
Boxoffice.com
Remarkably even-handed, The Syrian Bride,co-written by a Palestinian and an Israeli, suggests that a bureaucratic mindset is what really separates the foes.

...Eran Riklis' remarkable film explores the combined effects Middle Eastern geopolitics and age-old repressive conventions have on a 25-year-old bride.
