A Fiancé for Yasmina

IRENE CARDONA
Morocco, Spain, 2008, 92 minutes, Color

Malaga Spanish Film Festival's Audience favorite and winner for Best Film and Best Actress (Sanaa Alaoui), A Fiancé for Yasmina is a humorously romantic summer's tale about marriages of convenience, social commitment and the struggle to get by. Love, marriage, and immigration beautifully intertwine and playfully clash in Irene Cardona's tale of a young woman's search for a husband and citizenship, and her effect on a small Moroccan neighborhood in Spain. Yasmina is in a rush to marry Javi, a policeman who prefers to take his time. Alfredo is against marriage altogether, but is prepared to marry for friendship...or for cash. All the while, Yasmina's co-worker Lola suspects her husband, Jorge, has fallen for the enchanting and driven young woman.
