Lily James plays Zoe, a thirty-something documentarian who has chosen to focus on her career and not settle for a man for the sake of settling. Shazad Latif is Kaz, a successful doctor who grew up next door to Zoe and her mum, Cath, played by Emma Thompson. Kaz decides to follow in his parent's footsteps and asks them to help him find a bride through an assisted marriage, a contemporary approach to a traditional arranged Pakistani marriage. His parents are elated, Zoe is shocked, and Kaz believes he is making the right decision. Zoe sets out to make a documentary which takes the characters from England to Pakistan and back as she tries to determine if love is really needed to make a perfect match. The script is written by Jemima Khan, inspired by her marriage to legendary cricketer Imran Khan and her time living in Lahore. The film is directed by multi-BAFTA-winning director Shekhar Kapur in a comedy-drama that proves love can be complicated no matter the language we speak.
