Synopsis

Esther and Chioma try to connect as Chioma struggles to fully understand the nuances of Esther’s life as a non-binary person. But through a queering of a Ghanaian naming ceremony, the couple are invited to reconnect in a rhythmic celebration of diasporic Black queer joy. https://www.instagram.com/dzifashortfilm/
