In this compelling documentary, Elemchi Nwosu, a British-Igbo woman, embarks on a deeply personal journey to uncover the hidden stories of her family's past and explore her cultural identity. Born to parents who survived the Biafran War, Elemchi grew up in the UK, where the scars of the Nigerian Civil War were rarely spoken about at home. On the anniversary of the war's end, Elemchi decides to break the silence and delve into her parents' experiences, particularly the challenges they faced as immigrants building a new life far from their homeland.
The documentary also aims to reflect how global the Igbo community is, spotlighting what the diaspora looks like in one corner of the world. As Elemchi travels through the UK, she reconnects with the vibrant Igbo diaspora, meeting a Welsh woman who married an Igbo man in the 1950s and worked in Nigeria during the war. She also joins the thriving Igbo community in Cardiff, where traditions are kept alive through cultural celebrations and language education for the next generation.
Through intimate conversations, historical reflections, and joyful cultural moments, Elemchi pieces together what it means to be Igbo in a modern world, while honoring the legacy of those who lived through one of Africa’s most defining conflicts. The film offers a window into the resilience and enduring spirit of the Igbo people, showcasing how one of Africa’s most global communities continues to thrive and evolve across continents and generations.
