Golan heights and the outcome of the conflict which took place on the southernmost
occupied part of Syria is one of the most bizarre when it comes to freedom of
people to move from one side of the border to the other one.
In the
centre of this Golanese movie story is a young bride to be, and her adventure
to join herself in the holy matrimony with her fiance on the Syrian side of the
border. Her inability to enter Golan ever again will lead to several
complicated inter family breakouts and some hilarious moments as well.
Script
dribbles well through every circumstance, climaxing towards the end of the film
with all the major characters being stranded between two border crossings, not
being able to move forward or behind. Ending will promote somehow sidelined
bride into focus, wrapping up this untypical film story the only way it was
able to.
”The
Syrian bride” is an powerful indie with unbelievable story whose existence
major part of ”civilized” isn’t aware of.
