Africana Film Festival: Half of a Yellow Sun
(Diversity)
Twins from a wealthy Nigerian family return to a newly independent 1960s Nigeria after being educated in England. Olanna shocks her family by going to live with her lover, the revolutionary professor, Odenigbo. Kainene turns out to be a fiercely successful businesswoman when she takes over the family interests, and surprises even herself when she falls in love with an English writer named Richard. Preoccupied by their romantic entanglements, they inevitably become caught up in the events of the Nigerian civil war.
