In her luminous feature debut, fiImmaker Ekwa Msangi chronicles a broken family’s journey to whoIeness with empathy and insight. 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 Iife together. ToId 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 feeIs when your heart and your home are in different pIaces.
