Every good marriage begins with tears

A rare, candid and humorous glimpse into the life of a family and the clash of generations and cultures. Two Bangladeshi girls born and raised in London are about to get married, but their fiancés were chosen by their parents. The elder of the two sisters is quick-witted and coarse-mannered, while the other is more submissive and devout. But both have their doubts. We follow the months leading up to the big day from close up. As the future bridegrooms arrive in Great Britain for a visit everything still seems all right. But a few months later the whole situation has changed. One sister has left the house, she has a job and a new boyfriend; the other sister also refuses to marry the man her parents have picked out for her.
