From director Andrew Ahn (Fire Island) comes a joyful comedy of errors about a chosen family navigating cultural identity, queerness, and family expectations.
Frustrated with his commitment-phobic boyfriend Chris (Bowen Yang) and running out of time, Min (Han Gi-Chan) makes a proposal: a green-card marriage with their friend Angela (Kelly Marie Tran) in exchange for expensive IVF treatments for her partner Lee (Lily Gladstone).
Elopement plans are upended, however, when Min's grandmother surprises them with an extravagant Korean wedding banquet. The Wedding Banquet is a poignant and heartfelt reminder that being part of a family means learning to both accept and forgive.
"Between Fire Island and The Wedding Banquet, writer/director Andrew Ahn has found his particular rom-com frequency—ensemble comedies that seemed poised to explode into screwball madness but instead unfold as gently as a whisper." —Caroline Siede, Girl Culture
"As appealing as the actors playing the two couples are, the heart of the film is in the two women [Joan Chen and Youn Yuh-jung] in the older generations." —Nell Minow, Movie Mom
