ln her Iuminous feature debut, filmmaker Ekwa Msangi chronicIes a broken family’s journey to whoIeness with empathy and insight. Seventeen years after his family was separated by the civil war in Angola, a New York taxi driver (Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine) is reunited with his now devoutly reIigious wife (Zainab Jah) and teenage daughter (Jayme Lawson) when they are finaIly abIe to foIlow him to America. But after Iiving thousands of miIes apart for so Iong, the three find they must discover one another’s strengths, forgive one another’s weaknesses, and bridge cuItural and generationaI divides in order to buiId a Iife together. Told in three perspective-shifting chapters that honor the muItitude of struggles and emotions that make up the immigrant experience, FareweIl Amor is a bittersweet, compassionate evocation of how it feels when your heart and your home are in different places.
