Shamim Sharif's autobiographical novel serves as the inspiration for this film directed by the author, and concerning two women from deeply diverse backgrounds who discover that the love between them is too powerful to deny. Tala (Lisa Ray) is a London-based Jordanian of Palestinian descent. She's a spirited Christian in the midst of planning her wedding to her handsome Jordanian fiancée. Leyla (Sheetal Sheth) is a shy Mulsim who's currently dating Leyla's best friend Ali. Brought together by chance, Tala and Leyla form a slow bond that grows deeper with every minute they spend together. Eventually, the two girls reveal their true feelings to one another, and realize that they have fallen in love. But Tala is bound by her cultural heritage, and books a flight back to Jordan as Leyla's wedding date draws near. Back in London, a heartbroken Leyla decides to be honest with herself and her family by coming clean about her feelings for Tala. Inspired by Leyla's fearless commitment to Tala, Leyla's sister and Ali make it their mission to reunite the two girls. But before Tala can be truly happy with Leyla, she must first define for herself what true love really means.

Oh not a gay woman film. I hate those. I bet it'll have more substance than the average "for women" film. But then I guess it isn't really "for women."

For what it's worth, a gay woman film is also for real women. And you know what!?
I hate is people who only see things in black and white. I think this movie will proof that a lovestory / romantic komedie between to women can be as good as anything else.

Your an ass! I'm pretty sure this movie is for women. Unless it's some perverted guy who has to fulfill his desires by watching it because he can't get it in real life. Just face it, women don't need men to be happy. lol

...if there's no old-school t.A.T.u. in the soundtrack, someone wasn't thinking. And speaking of t.A.T.u., aren't we getting the Russian version of this flick with Mischa Barton and some other C-lister soon? "You and I"?
