The Wedding Song - Official US Trailer

Coming to DVD in March. Save to Netflix - http://www.netflix.com/Movie/The_Wedding_Song/70127023?strackid=668db04c0d60c...
Nour and Myriam, 16, have been friends since childhood. They share the same house in a modest neighbourhood where Jews and Muslims live in harmony. Each one secretly desires the other girl's life: while Nour regrets that she doesn't go to school like her friend, Myriam dreams of love. She is envious of Nour's engagement to her cousin Khaled, a sort of fantasy of the charming Arabian prince that they both share. Unfortunately, Khaled cannot find work. The engagement lingers and the prospect of a carnal union grows more distant. In November 1942, the German army enters Tunis. Pursuing the policies of the Vichy regime, the Nazis impose a heavy fine on the Jewish community. Tita, Myriam's mother, no longer has the right to work. Crippled with debts, she decides to marry her daughter to a rich doctor. Myriam sees her dreams of love suddenly fade away. An official selection at the Palm Springs International Film Festival & New York Jewish Film Festival.

Saw this movie on TV last night. It wasn't as good as I was hoping - I think some aspects of Judaism and Islam weren't incorporated into this movie as deeply as they could have been, apart from towards the end. And the characters...I don't know why, but I couldn't really sympathise with either of them.
