A wedding celebration goes drastically off the rails in the fearlessly subversive and formally inventive second feature from Julius-Amédée Laou. On the day of their marriage, a Black bride from a Caribbean immigrant family and her white French fiancé see their big day upended by his family’s barely-contained racism, the appearance of an unexpected guest, and a startling revelation. Cleverly shot on MiniDV from the perspective of the party’s guests, FRENCH WEDDING CARIBBEAN STYLE spares no one as it issues an incendiary takedown of both white racism and West Indian misogyny.
