Caramel

While a hairdresser (Nadine Labaki) in Beirut ignores the advances of a handsome cop (Adel Karam) to pine for the married man she cannot have and an engaged Muslim woman (Yasmine Elmasri) worries that her fiancé (Ismail Antar) will discover that she is not a virgin on their wedding night in this engaging, bittersweet French film, a divorced actress (Gisèle Aouad) worries about auditioning with younger actresses, a seamstress (Sihame Haddad) ignores the flirtations of an elderly customer (Dimitri Staneofski) to care for her senile sister (Aziza Semaan), and a gay salon employee (Joanna Moukarzel) tries to ignore her attraction to a mysterious, long-haired client (Fadia Stella).
