Farewell Amor

Walter was forced to leave his family in Angola 17 years ago. He picks up his wife and daughter from the airport and brings them to his one-bedroom Brooklyn apartment. Walter realises he is not over his lover, Linda who just moved out. 



As his daughter joins a dance competition, she opens up a pathway unexpectedly for her family to get to know each other. In this eye catching, full of music vibrant film, the emotional complexity portrays each character’s point of view. This is an intergenerational immigrant story – the kind of story that has shaped the inception of America.
