In Sabah, Arsinee Khanjian (Exotica, The Sweet Hereafter) plays the title character, an unmarried 40-year-old woman of Syrian birth who lives in Toronto with her traditional and sometimes overbearing, but loving, Muslim family. When Sabah falls hard for Stephen (Shawn Doyle), a nice Canadian guy she meets at a local swimming pool, she has no choice but to hide him from her family as she attempts to live up to their expectations. Sabah's clandestine suitor, as it turns out, is a carpenter with no religious belief. As the affair hears up, the ensuing clash of cultures threatens to shatter the entire family.
An entertaining, Syrian My Big Fat Greek Wedding, Sabah is acclaimed director Ruba Nadda's (Unsettled, I Always Come To You) wonderfully humorous, touching and timely romantic story about tradition, assimilation and love. Can a family trapped in its past find a way to move forward together?
