Marvelous and Donald Zimbabwean emigrants in Minnesota are preparing for the marriage of their eldest daughter Tendi. They have gracefully blended Zimbabwean culture alongside their American culture but their house is turned upside down when Marvelous' sister comes from Zimbabwe to perform a very traditional wedding ceremony in which the groom barters for the bride. Tensions flare and identites clash as the family's fabric slowly unweaves and they are forced to take a hard look at who they truly are.
