What's FuFu?
Synopsis
A young Nigerian girl recounts her experiences of being fostered into a white British family. Based on original documentary interviews with 16-year-old Yemmi, this short animation film takes us on an emotional journey from the urban deprivation of Hackney, to suburban Bournemouth as she searches to reconcile her split cultural identity and express her complex feelings toward both her birth mother and native Africa.
An uplifting tale of contemporary relevance in which hope and youth triumph over adversity.
