Her headstrong mother NADINE, a born-again Christian disapproves of her Muslim fiance so thoroughly she plans to boycott the wedding. Her younger sisters DALIA and YASMINE behave like her children. And her estranged father EDWARD is suddenly and suspiciously interested in making amends. As her wedding day looms, May finds herself more and more confronted by the trauma of her parents divorce. And soon, her once carefully structured life spins hopelessly out of control.

Movie Reviews

Detroit News - 9/10 by Tom LongYou believe in these people, you care about them and their struggles. And in the end, you wish them all the best.
Film Journal International - 8/10 by David NohDabis has concocted a fairly engaging family dramedy, which would have been a lot better if her own character weren't such a paragon.
Oregonian - 8/10 by Marc MohanAs is, it's a pleasant but unremarkable retelling of a story as old as the Dead Sea itself.
Observer - 8/10 by Matthew KasselAs much as May in the Summer is a comedy — May and her mischievous sisters may remind you of The Three Stooges — it is also an intimate and demystifying look at life in Amman, where the movie was actually filmed.
Film-Forward.com - 7/10 by Nora Lee MandelRefreshingly normal middle-class family in modern Amman and diversity of people give the familial dynamics added interest for a rare and lovely, if mild, view from Jordan.
El Pais (Spain) - 7/10 by Javier OcañaIf you're looking for a deep reflection on Jordan and the Middle East, this isn't the film for you. [Full review in Spanish]
Washington Post - 6/10 by Stephanie MerryIt’s diverting to watch and has moments of brilliance, but even with all its refreshing female characters, May in the Summer doesn’t leave a lasting impression.
Arizona Republic - 6/10 by Barbara VanDenburghThe film really pops to life only when it gets a little messy, and it's never messier than when it loses itself in family dynamics.
The New York Times - 6/10 by Ben KenigsbergThe hand-wringing and revelations are familiar from many wedding movies, but May in the Summer gains added potency from its cross-cultural tensions and the drama the characters face in reconciling tradition with modern life.
Village Voice - 6/10 by Abby GarnettMay in the Summer's biggest obstacle is Dabis, who isn't a strong enough actress to sell the subtle humor.
