The Sticky Side of Baklava (French: La face cachée du baklava) is a Quebec film recounting the story of a clash between Lebanese and Quebec cultures, as played out in the relationship between two sisters. It features Jean-Nicolas Verreault, Claudia Ferri, Raïa Haïdar and Geneviève Brouillette.[1][2]

The Sticky Side of Baklava takes a comedic look at cultural difference, as experienced by two sisters who leave Lebanon to settle in Montreal. Houwayda embraces the lifestyle and values of her new home, while Joelle holds onto her Lebanese traditions. When faced with an important life choice that will affect the people around her, Houwada questions the values of her past as well as her present.[3][4][5]
