Awarded Best Film at the Montreal Film Festival, and the Audience Award at Locarno, The Syrian Bride is an emotional, authentic and often humorous drama defying all borders, whether physical or mental. In Golan Heights, originally Syrian land but Israeli-controlled since 1967, Mona’s arranged marriage to a Syrian TV star she’s never met is the catalyst for a conflict-ridden day for her family and numerous others across both borders. Syrians at heart, yet separated from their homeland, the Druze villagers are both pleased to see Mona gain citizenship to Syria through her marriage, yet painfully aware that once she crosses the border, she can never again return to her close-knit family. In a tale of tensions between tradition, family dynamics and personal fulfillment, each member of Mona’s family has his or her own story of love, desire, and duty, all necessarily interwoven with the political circumstances surrounding their land.
