It’s 1967 in San Francisco, California. Joanna is surprising her parents with a visit home and a fiancé. Making that first introduction to the parents is never easy, and even more so when the whirlwind romance is set against the backdrop of the ’60s, and involves a young mixed-race couple. Both families are forced to reckon with their ideas and prejudices in the face of pending nuptials.
This new and timely adaptation of the classic movie still rings true today and allows us to hold a mirror up to ourselves with humor and insight.
