Synopsis of My Brother Is Getting Married
The bittersweet story at the heart of this feature begins years prior to the film's outset, when two once-in-love Swiss parents decided to adopt a Vietnamese little boy, Vinh (Quoc Dung Nguyen), as a foster child for themselves and a foster sibling for their biological children. In time, issues split apart the husband and wife - and thus the family - and led to untold decades of estrangement. Now, the adult Vinh is getting married to a Swiss woman, and in attempt to reunite with his biological mom, he invites her to the celebration. She agrees, but because she has no knowledge of the schism in Vinh's adoptive family (and thanks in no small part to his own embarrassment of the situation), he asks them (father, mother, brothers, sisters, all) to feign harmony, happiness, mutual love and togetherness. Surprisingly, all agree, but before long, old conflicts and issues bubble beneath the surface, quelling up into a towering rage that threatens to bring the whole masquerade crashing down on the single most important day of Vinh's life. ~ Nathan Southern, All Movie Guide
