Production
A Wedding in Ramallah was filmed in Palestine and the United States of America over a period of nine months.
Reception
Paul Byrnes wrote in the Sydney Morning Herald that it "is an intriguing film - mysterious and playful, dramatic and emotional, but also careful about not abusing a trust. Salama has the ability to remain personally involved as she films. Detachment was never an honest stance for a film-maker, anyway." Writing in Variety David Stratton says "It’s a sad but probably typical story, and it’s beautifully handled by director Salama, who evidently formed a close bond with her subjects, especially the women. In a film full of humor, the viewer is never allowed to forget the tragic subtext." Samantha Bonar of The Los Angeles Times finishes "This look at the intimate side of Palestinian life, both in the Middle East and here, is fascinating but not pleasant. Salama’s film illuminates a culture that appears maddeningly misogynistic. Hoping for a new life after her wedding in Ramallah, this bride instead got a dead-end."
