MIDWEST PREMIERE. ARAB FILM FESTIVAL SELECTION. Therese, married to the mayor of a small Lebanese village, is highly anticipating the overnight visit of her daughter’s new suitor and his family. As she frantically prepares her house for the guests, Therese keeps a running one-sided dialogue with framed photos of her deceased brother, who was killed 20 years ago by a Syrian bomb. By the time the doorbell rings, everything is just perfect – until Therese discovers that her soon-to-be in-laws are Syrian.
