I Was Never Really Here

Sam, a 17-year-old German-Ghanaian, and his mother, Rita, are finally able to welcome two long-awaited visitors from their home country; but the joy of reunion is clouded by the unresolved residence status of Gifty and her son, Kwesi. Sam is thus confronted with questions about his origins and identity, and also begins to fall in love with Kwesi.
