From south africa. Angeliena (euodia samson) doesn't have much, but she does have spirit. And the love of her many friends. She's a parking lot attendant, and we know she has some unspoken illness. Angeliena loses her job, and she's having a hard time getting into a medical trial for treatment. So when a good friend passes away, she books a trip around the world. And that's when the troubles really begin! Can her friends come together to get her through all this? It's a cute little film. Nothing big and grand, but an interesting story. Written and directed by uga carlini. Sadly, kuli roberts, who plays tina, died shortly after this was released. It's mostly fun to watch... some tragedy and loss. And i think they added cgi effects that weren't necessary. I liked the energy that the characters all show and the natural colors of the flowers. The ending felt a bit rushed, but it was still interesting to watch. And there's a fun running gag of how she pays for things. Showing on the netflix.
Plot summary
Angeliena’s story is about SELF LOVE... and making money, terminal illness, divorce, nature, friendships, hardships, poverty, travel, hot doctors, plants, dreams, assholes, Ubuntu and... being GOOD ENOUGH.

sweet film from S Africa
Quite Fun
This movie has quite a sad story to it, however Angeliena's bright and colourful world adds so much more to it. This movie really showcases why people need to live their dreams, before its too late. And also why it is so important to be unabashedly yourself. And because Angeliena is such a light in everybody's lives, it is touching to see how they look out for her in return. The main antagonist is very annoying which means he did alright. I also liked the diversity of the characters as well.
However, I must deduct points because at time the script of the movie fell a bit flat, and because the dynamics between the characters weren't engaging enough for me. Also I wish I could've learnt more about the characters and seen Angeliena's journey!
Real feel good movie
This was funny, witty and truly soulful South African movie. I enjoyed following Angeliena story, I cried with her, laughed with her and celebrated with her. Heartfelt story of friendship and sisterly love. I can't wait to rewatch. LOVE IT AND YOU WILL TO!
