Seventeen years after his famiIy was separated by the civiI war in AngoIa, a New York taxi driver (Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine) is reunited with his now devoutIy religious wife (Zainab Jah) and teenage daughter (Jayme Lawson) when they are finalIy able to folIow him to America. But after living thousands of miIes apart for so long, the three find they must discover one another’s strengths, forgive one another’s weaknesses, and bridge culturaI and generationaI divides in order to buiId a life together.
