First-Gen Immigrant Filmmakers Are Redefining the American Family Onscreen


First-Gen Immigrant Filmmakers Are Redefining the American Family Onscreen
Films like ‘Minari’ and ‘Farewell Amor’ counter the steely, back-breaking myth of the American dream with the soft, flexible salve of self-determination, self-acceptance, and self-care.

Westport, Conn. is the 19th richest community in America. It’s where some of my middle school and junior high classmates lived and it’s where my Jamaican grandma cleaned homes for years. I attended countless birthday parties and sleepovers in the same neighborhood where I would accompany my mom’s mom on the job when mine was away at her own. I preoccupied myself with books and schoolwork as she scrubbed, sponged, mopped, and polished interiors that dwarfed our six-person family’s three-bedroom apartment in Bridgeport.

‘Farewell Amor’ Is A Moving Tale Of An African Immigrant Family Reconnecting After Years Of Separation
We touch base with director Ekwa Msangi on her debut feature being a timely universal account of the Black immigrant experience.

'Farewell Amor' Review: Dancers Without Borders


Dec. 23, 2020 3:26 pm ET
The streaming medium has become such a torrent that it’s easy to overlook a small, stirring film like “Farewell Amor.” A debut feature, it was written and directed by Ekwa Msangi and is available on digital platforms. “Amor” is the first word we hear in the first scene, shot in silhouette in a terminal at JFK. Actually we hear it twice, and with great warmth, from a woman, Esther (Zainab Jah), who, arriving from Africa with her school-age daughter, Sylvia (Jayme Lawson), is met by Walter (Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine), the husband and father they haven’t seen since he left for America 17 years before.
