Coconut & Cane Screening: Queen of Glory + Q&A

Sarah Obeng, the brilliant child of Ghanaian immigrants, is quitting her Ivy League PhD programme to follow her married lover to Ohio. When her mother dies suddenly, she bequeaths her daughter a Christian bookstore in the Pelham Parkway section of the Bronx where Sarah was raised. A follow-up on the classic immigrant’s tale, Queen of Glory provokes laughter and empathy, as its heroine is reborn through her inheritance.

This screening will be followed by a Q&A with screenwriter Lorna King and management consultant Asabea Owusu, hosted by Eilidh Akilade.
