Before the Vows

Meet Afua, a modern day Ghanaian woman with plans to marry her fiancé Nii. The only problem is, Afua is not sure she believes in marriage. Her divorced parents, an unbearable stepmother, and Nii’s bickering married parents, cause Afua to have doubts about her upcoming union. After selecting a cake, finalizing decorations and altering her dress – Afua starts to question what makes a marriage truly work. She devises an unconventional plan to ensure that she and Nii will embark on a long and happy marriage. But the very plan devised to help them may be the same plan that causes their relationship to crumble – even before their intended “I do’s.” (Pan African Film Festival)
