About The Film

Two Georgian families are arranging an engagement between their children, Gur and Dikla. On the eve of the engagement ceremony, the families tensely await Gur’s arrival, while unbeknownst to them Gur is in an adjacent room secretly having sex with his boyfriend. In this tragic comedy, Gur must decide whether to keep his true identity secret for his family’s sake or reveal the truth. This film was inspired by the 2001 Israeli hit LATE MARRIAGE.
