The film is about two sisters born and raised in London in the traditions of their native Bangladesh about to have arranged marriages to men chosen by their parents. OverviewShahanara Begum is quick-witted, coarse-mannered, in her early 20s and has embraced Western life. But her lifestyle has turned her father against who banished her from her family. To pacify him and heal old wounds with her father, she agrees to marry a man that her family has chosen for her. However, she discovers after the ceremony that he has decided they will live in Bangladesh rather than London so she abandons her husband, leaves home, gets a job and a boyfriend. Meanwhile, Shahanara's younger sister, Hushnara Begum, is submissive, devout, quiet, and dutiful, and obeys her father and their domineering elder sister. Hushnara is being groomed for her own arranged marriage, something that at the age of 19 she does not feel ready for. When her parents inform her they have decided she will marry a man in Bangladesh that she has never met, she agrees. However, as her wedding day draws closer, her misgivings grow stronger and she refuses to marry the man her parents have chosen for her.

It dispels myths about Islam's treatment of women and puts a human face on the communities lately being targeted as a result of the terrorist attacks on the West."[10] Mark Deming of The New York Times described it as "Two sisters living in England whose family have raised them in the traditions of their native Bangladesh have very different perspectives on the issue of arranged marriage."[11] International Documentary Film Festival Amsterdam said, "The film offers a rare, candid and humorous glimpse into the life of a family and the clash of generations and cultures."[4] Cutting East Film Festival said, "This funny poignant film gives an insight into the effect both positive and negative an arranged marriage has on a family and on the community."[7] Awards and nominations
