A bride-to-be’s estranged, divorced parents travel to Croatia and pose as a loving couple to meet her fiancé’s traditional family.
The story
Lisa and her Croatian boyfriend, Hrvoje, fall deeply in love, move in together after only three months, and become engaged at their housewarming party. Their plans hit a complication when Hrvoje’s strictly Catholic mother, Darinka, demands a traditional wedding in Croatia and wants to meet Lisa’s parents. Lisa’s parents, Theresa and Gerd, are divorced and have been estranged from each other, while Theresa also avoids contact with Lisa and opposes the wedding. Owing Lisa a great deal, Theresa nevertheless travels with Gerd to Croatia. To get through the family meeting, the former couple pretend they are still lovingly together.
Full plot (contains spoilers)
Lisa and her Croatian boyfriend, Hrvoje, are very much in love. After just three months, they move in together, and during their housewarming party, Lisa accepts her beloved’s charming marriage proposal. But however happy the couple may seem now, many problems lie ahead. Hrvoje’s strictly Catholic mother, Darinka, insists on a traditional wedding in Croatia, and naturally wants to meet Lisa’s parents. That is where the problem lies: her parents are far from being as religious and bourgeois as Darinka. They are a divorced ex-hippie couple. After some very wild years of marriage, Lisa’s mother, Theresa, left Gerd and avoids him just as much as she avoids contact with her daughter. Theresa also disapproves of Lisa’s wedding plans. But because she owes Lisa a great deal, she travels with Gerd to Croatia, where they pretend to be a loving couple.
