Alim is an Ismaili Canadian who lives in London, thousands of miles from his family, for one very good reason--he has a boyfriend. His ideal gay life begins to unravel when his mother shows up to find him a proper Muslim girlfriend and convince him to return to Canada for his cousin's extravagant wedding.
This is the only movie in which the two Mexican cinema icons Pedro Infante and Jorge Negrete appear together, sharing screen time. They both appear in Reportaje (1953), but never in the same shot.
