When a wedding is cancelled, is the wedding party a recipe for disaster? Definitely. And quite a spectacular one! Everything sets the two families apart – their backgrounds, status, wealth and taste. At first, the bride and groom’s parents are simply in shock. What happened? Who’s to blame? What about the reception? Should they welcome the guests? Put on some music and let the vodka flow? Who will cut the cake? Polite smiles quickly turn into a heated argument. And then a real bomb goes off… Meanwhile, the reception turns into a crazy party and nobody seems to mind about the missing young couple.
This is a fresh and hilarious comedy with unexpected twists and turns. It explores the various shades of human nature, and boasts innovative camera-work as well as excellent acting.
