In 1922 many ships set sail from Europe to New York, with their precious cargo of hundreds of "proxy brides" - women arranged to be married to strangers in a land with a better supply of men than their own. In following the passage of one such ship, we learn of the trials of such a journey, and the risks of manipulation and corruption of the process. What would make someone agree to such a thing? Brides is a story from a different time.

Niki Douka is one such bride, one of eleven sisters of marrying age from a poor family in Samothrace, Greece. She hopes only to preserve her family's honour, protect her sister, and send home some coloured pencils for another sister. Norman Harris is an American photographer, returning home to an unhappy marriage himself. He is immediately drawn to Niki, impressed by her resolve and her quiet strength. Their developing relationship is the heart of this film, and it is beautifully handled.
