Khat is Ethiopia’s biggest cash crop, making serious business from a spiritual high: When chewed, the leaves of the flowering green plant act as a stimulant, believed in certain corners of Sufism to aid prayer and enable transcendence. Others make less lofty demands of it, simply chewing the leaves to mellow out, making days of drudgery pass a little more softly including those who work gruelingly in the khat trade.

Farewell Amor is streaming on Mubi from 18 December 2020.
Ekwa Msangiâs immigrant drama Farewell Amor opens with a scene of an airport reunion shot at a short distance, the figures almost blankly silhouetted against the glass walls. The film will follow the subsequent events from the perspective of all three characters in this awkward vignette. Thereâs Walter (Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine), the Brooklyn-based taxi driver who left his family behind in Angola when he emigrated to the US 17 years earlier, after the outbreak of civil war. He is tentatively embracing his wife Esther (Zainab Jah), who subsequently fled to Tanzania with their baby daughter, and found solace in her church during their estrangement. Daughter Sylvia (newcomer Jayme Lawson), now a sullen if elegant teenager, hovers behind her mother.
