A journey that opens in the city of Addis Ababa, Ethiopia and ends in Los Angeles, California, Lambadina addresses the yin and yang of misfortune and fortune.

Following the life of Joseph, we see a boy consistently faced with overwhelming tragedy. A son losing a father, a young man losing a lover, an Ethiopian losing his culture… yet through these challenges, he is resilient.

In this inspiring tale, the significance of perspective is shown. Lambadina is a film that highlights the struggles of love while depicting the challenges of the Ethiopian/African immigrant establishing life in a foreign land
