Monsoon Wedding

As the romantic monsoon rains loom, the extended Verma family reunites from around the globe for a last-minute arranged marriage in New Delhi. This film traces five intersecting stories, each navigating different aspects of love as they cross boundaries of class, continent and morality.

Although Mira Nair’s film has an indie aesthetic, it was financed with international backing and had broad festival and distribution support, making it not strictly independent.
