Plot edit

An Indian girl wants the freedom to choose her own destiny and the love of her life, but her mother wants to marry her off in an arranged marriage.

The film portrays an intriguing mix of matchmakers, bhangra dancers, psychic healers, and religious fanatics, and addresses one of the most important issues in contemporary Muslim culture: women’s rights, veils and burkas.
