Amadi is a Rwandan refugee struggling with his new life in New Zealand. Alone, patronised in his menial job (he’s called “Africa” by a workmate), and anxious about rescuing his family from his war-torn ‘home’; he forms an unlikely connection with the prickly (unstable?) lady living next door. Directed by 2009 Spada New Filmmaker of the Year, Zia Mandviwalla, Amadi joins Eating Sausage, and Clean Linen to form a trio of shorts that explore cross-cultural collision. Amadi screened at Melbourne and Hawaii international film festivals.
