Anwuli

–0 votes on TMDBMovie27m

    Mma, a Lagos tailor, and her bike rider husband, Abuoma, struggle through intense poverty while caring for their seven year old daughter, Anwuli, who suffers from Sickle Cell Disease. Desperate to pay for Anwuli's medication, Mma sells her sewing machine, but Abuoma, her pain in the ass husband who has Myoclonus— a condition that makes him jerk involuntary, takes the money for groceries, dismissing their daughter's illness as a spiritual curse rather than a medical condition. When Anwuli suffers a severe health crisis, the couple engages in a bitter argument over how to raise the hospital deposit, leading to a devastating tragedy. In the aftermath of the loss, the fragile bond holding their marriage together completely shatters. With their central point of connection gone and years of built up resentment laid bare, Mma reaches a point of quiet clarity and decides to walk away from the marriage to reclaim her own life.
