London Migration Film Festival: Ama Gloria

Cléo loves her nanny Gloria more than anyone. But when Gloria suddenly has to return home to Cape Verde to look after her own children, Gloria invites the heartbroken Cléo to visit her and the two have to make the most of their last summer together.


A film that works both as a simple heartfelt drama and as a clear allegory (and critique) of colonialism, Ama Gloria is a beautifully drawn study of a young girl on a steep learning curve about the broader contexts of her, and other people’s, worlds.


Original Language: French

Presented with English subtitles


Screening as part of London Migration Film Festival.


London Migration Film Festival is an annual film festival that has been running since 2016. The aim of the festival is to challenge the narrow rhetoric on migration that often sees migration, and people on the move, framed in reductive and dehumanising terms. The festival is taking place from 20-27 November 2024.
