Sabah

Sabah is 40, single, an immigrant from Syria living in Toronto with her family, responsible for her mother’s well-being. Since her father’s death, her brother Majid has been the family authority. His niece doesn’t want him choosing her husband, his marriage is rocky, but he insists on tradition. Sabah meets Stephen at a city swimming pool; they’re attracted to each other. Because he’s not a Muslim, Sabah hides their friendship from her family. Where can this relationship go? Can this family sort out its tensions?
