Doors 6:30 PM / Movie 7 PM

Hoping to rebuild family ties with his estranged father and brothers, Dario travels from the US to his hometown in Argentina to attend his sister Daniela’s wedding and his niece’s Bat Mitzvah. As he and his three siblings make their way home, their father has a sudden stroke and passes away. Facing the decision as to whether they should move forward with the celebrations during the period of mourning, they find themselves thrust right back into the family dramas of old. As this group of quirky but often familiar characters painstakingly try to find a way past the hurts and misunderstandings of the past, a loving family with all its sibling rivalries, shortcomings, and strengths is joyfully revealed. Mazel Tov is an Argentinian comedy that delightfully reminds us that nothing ever goes quite as planned.
