Farewell Amor

Reunited after a 17-year separation, Walter, an Angolan immigrant, is joined in the U.S. by his wife and teenage daughter. Now absolute strangers sharing a one-bedroom apartment, they discover a shared love of dance that may help overcome the emotional distance between them.

Directed by Ekwa Msangi, Farewell Amor leans on a strong ensemble — Ntare Guma Mbaho Mwine, Zainab Jah, Jayme Lawson — to carry a story that balances spectacle with character.

The film landed with audiences for its craft and performances, and remains one of the most talked-about romance titles of 2020.
