French Wedding, Caribbean Style
5.9
In Julius Amédée-Laou's biting dramedy, a supposedly joyful interracial wedding descends into chaos when long-buried prejudices and family secrets rise to the surface. Told through the cocky lens of the bride's younger brother, what begins as a lighthearted summer affair turns nightmarish as scandal threatens to destroy the unlikely couple's big day.
