In our society where so many marriages fail and so many young people find it challenging to find a suitable mate, a glimpse into another world is both fascinating and ironic. In India most marriages are arranged. Love isn't always a consideration. It is neither a quest nor a prerequisite for happiness. You must fulfill your destiny. Marrying for love remains the exception. The arranged marriage serves the best interests of the family, preserves values from generation to generation. But how can love and life be a family matter and not an individual one? In this documentary the director meets with her Indian friends and tries to better understand what love can be like when it's not a choice. To inquire about purchasing this film, click here.
