Our Family Wedding

Directed by Rick Famuyiwa1h 43m2010

The weeks leading up to a young couple's wedding is comic and stressful, especially as their respective fathers try to lay to rest their feud.

Our read: Our Family Wedding (2010) reads as a cosy, kinetic, grounded comedy entry — gentle in intensity, intimate in scope, tender in temperature, redemptive in outlook.
