AMA – A classic of Magic Realism Cinema. Watch out for the RE-MASTERED FILM

She is an ancestral messenger on an urgent mission. Her family is on the verge of tragedy and time is running out.

Ama is a highly intelligent and perceptive 12-year old who becomes the medium for an ancestral prophecy. She finds a computer flobby disk by a lake in the English countryside and the information on the disc is startling. The ancestors reveal who she really is and set her on a “mission” to save her father, Babs from death and her brother, Joe from disaster during an upcoming fight. Will she succeed?

“An intriguing breakthrough” – Derek Malcolm, The Guardian

“Original” – John Wrathall – Good Times

“The combination of African magic and Western realism is put together by the writer and co-director, Kwesi Owusu, in a restless, free-wheeling tale. Its appealingly fresh and unusual”– Barry Norman, FILM 91

“There’s much of interest in the film, the first film to examine the atavistic, spiritual soul of assimilated urban middle-class African immigrants in Britain, and it opens up fascinating insights” – George Perry, The Independent

” A gallant attempt to break new barriers in Black film entertainment” Ron Shillingford, The Voice
