In a world where romance has been replaced by speed dating, is arranged marriage the hassle-free way of getting hitched in the new millennium? This documentary takes a lighthearted look at young American Desis who are willingly placing their destiny in the hands of their parents, marriage brokers, and internet matrimonial ads. Navigating us through the film is Rupa Gawle - a young, hip, and very single popular Desi columnist. As she tries to understand how young, successful South Asian-Americans would want to subject themselves to the age-old tradition of arranged marriages, we are introduced to a cast of colorful characters who will tell us exactly why.
In this sparkling romance, Ruby, a Chinese American toy designer from LA, visits Hong Kong for the first time on business. Finding herself stranded, she meets Josh, an American expat who shows her the city.
Toy tycoon Charles Ting calls on his daughter, New York filmmaker Emily Ting, to help out with the family toy company. Documentary cameras follow Emily's return to Hong Kong, where she soon discovers a host of family secrets and business woes. Dad's a tantrum-throwing control freak, the company's on the brink of bankruptcy and her stepmother sees her as an interfering enemy. Worst of all, Emily's father plans to step down and make her CEO.
