What does love have to do with it? A film about documentary filmmaker and dating app addict Zoe (Lily James) who has no luck swiping right on dating apps. He only mixed her up with the wrong men, much to the dismay of her mother, Keith (Emma Thompson). Zoe’s childhood friend and neighbor Qaz (Shehzad Latif), on the other hand, decides to follow his parents’ example and opts for an arranged marriage with a bride from Pakistan.
Zoe films Kaz’s journey from London to Lahore to marry a stranger chosen by her parents. The project made her wonder if she could learn anything from this completely different way of finding love.
The music of this cross-cultural romantic comedy is composed by Nitin Sahni. Indian singers Kanika Kapoor and Rahat Fateh Ali Khan will also feature in the soundtrack.
