Synopsis

When Rochel and Nasira — an Orthodox Jew and a Muslim, respectively — meet as new teachers at a Brooklyn school, co-workers and students expect friction. But the women discover they have a shared expectation of entering into arranged marriages.

Our take

The vibrant streets of Brooklyn lend a vivid authenticity to this unique, intimately-lensed tale of arranged marriage. With a terrific pair of performances from Zoe Lister-Jones and Francis Benhamou, Arranged charts the tensions between religious insularity and modern dating with acute precision.
