From director Andrew Ahn comes a joyful comedy of errors about a chosen family navigating the complexities and expectations of family life, queerness, and cultural identity. Angela and her partner Lee have struggled with IVF treatments but can’t afford another round.
Meanwhile, their friend Min, a closeted executive from a multinational corporation, has plenty of family money but a soon-to-expire student visa. When Min’s commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris rejects his proposal, Min offers Angela a green card marriage in exchange for funding Lee’s IVF. But their quiet elopement plan is derailed when Min’s skeptical grandmother arrives from Korea, insisting on an elaborate wedding.
With a pitch-perfect cast featuring Bowen Yang, Academy Award nominee Lily Gladstone, Kelly Marie Tran, Han Gi-Chan, Joan Chen, and Academy Award winner Youn Yuh-Jung, this fresh reimagining of Ang Lee’s beloved, award-winning rom-com brings humor and heart to the poignant reminder that being part of a family means learning to both accept and forgive.
