Claudio C @Claudio666 Apr 20, 2026 Mother and Daughters (12,402 – 20 Apr 2026 – Claudio Carvalho) The writer May (Cherien Dabis) travels from New York to her hometown in Jordan to organize her wedding with her fiancé, Columbia Professor Oum Ziad (Haifa Agha). Her divorced mother Nadine (Hiam Abbass) tells May that she will not go to the wedding since Ziad is Muslim and she is evangelical. May meets her sister Dalia (Alia Shawkat) and Yasmine (Nadine Malouf); visits her father Edward (Bill Pullman) and his wife Anu (Ritu Singh Pande); and befriends the touristic guide Karim (Elie Mitri). Along the days, family secrets are disclosed and May has cold feet. "May in the Summer" (2013) is a simple film about a woman that returns to her hometown to plan her wedding and makes discovers about her family, leading her to call off the marriage. The plot is realistic and the acting top-notch. My vote is seven.

Venden una comedia pero es en realidad un drama de telenovela de medio oriente.
