NY PREMIERE, Director in Attendance
The latest romantic comedy by Egyptian director Hala Khalil, starring Hanan Turk and Sherif Mounir as two wanderlust young Egyptians, at odds with old friends and entrenched in less-than-ideal jobs, who decide to expatriate from Egypt to New Zealand by—What else?—getting hitched. Khalil exploits the hilarity of a marriage of convenience that unexpectedly turns into something more.
