Happy Ever Afters (2009) Synopsis

In Dublin, single mom Maura is being evicted and her furniture is being repossessed. For a fee she will marry Wilson, an African who faces deportation; her 9-year-old, Molly, thinks she's getting a dad. Freddie, a bit of a compulsive, is remarrying Sophie, after divorce and recommitment; she's starved herself into her old wedding dress. Both bridal parties arrive at the same inn for receptions: Freddie and Maura's paths keep crossing, Sophie thinks the two are having an affair, immigration officers are stalking Wilson, and Molly's figuring out what's really up. Sophie's father threatens Freddie with bodily harm if anything goes wrong. Can it not?—
