Synopsis

Apparently based on a true story, Omar and Joanna are in a new and passionate relationship. Omar, on a weekend to meet Joanna’s family at their mountain home, is shocked to discover his girlfriend’s mother is his ex- girlfriend, whom he genuinely loved whilst she was separated from her husband. How will he survive 3 long days without his girlfriend, or her dad, finding out the truth? A wacky, satirical comedy of manners – only in Lebanon!
