KOH Film Club Presents:

ARRANGED
Friendship Has No Religion

Sunday, April 15th
2:00 pm

The story of two young teachers at a public school in Brooklyn.  Rachel is an Orthodox Jew, and Nasira is a Muslim of Syrian origin. They are both going through the process of traditional religious and cultural "arranged marriages".  With both family pressure on the one hand, and the rejection of traditional values by the outside world on the other, Rachel and Nasira rely on their friendship to pull through this challenging time in their lives.  They strive to be strong women in charge of their own happiness, while keeping their deep religious and cultural convictions.
