Preview: The Last Tree GFT
19 September, 2019
Femi, a British boy of Nigerian heritage, moves to inner London to live with his mum after a happy childhood in rural Lincolnshire. Struggling with the unfamiliar culture and values of his new environment, teenage Femi has to figure out which path to adulthood he wants to take, and what it means to be a young black man in London. Shola Amoo’s second feature is a semi-autobiographical coming-of-age drama, which explores universal themes of identity and belonging. Programme notes will be available.
Followed by a Q&A with writer/director Shola Amoo.
