· Monsoon Wedding · by Mira Nair @ Beatley Library

Weddings are stressful, but this wedding will turn the stress level up to 11 with a Westernized Indian groom from Texas arriving to marry a traditional bride. Family members are coming from all over the world, some from as far away as Australia, and it’s all happening in New Delhi during monsoon season. The four-day series of events will bring all sorts of organizational glitches, family strife, and typical pre-wedding jitters. Nonetheless, this is a romantic comedy that may lead to a surprisingly happy ending.
