“Shall we have a real conversation? I am ready to stop pretending if you are.”
Shortly after the death of her father, Peace receives a message from a stranger wanting to meet her. Bolu, the half-brother from Nigeria that she never knew existed.
Caught between her mother's concern and her fiancé's encouragement, Faith decides to invite him to England - and his arrival feels like something clicking into place.
However, questions about this stranger's intentions and his mysterious past hang heavy in the air. Fighting to keep her fractured family - and herself - together, Peace must face the fact that the answers she desperately seeks might just lead to everything falling apart.
My Father's Fable is a gripping story of grief, belonging, and a family on the edge from Alfred Fagon award-winner Faith Omole, directed by Rebekah Murrell (J’ouvert, West End) with a cast including BAFTA-winner Rakie Ayola.
