NEW REVIEW—The last of our #SXSW coverage is now online! In one of my favorite films of the festival, #Ludi spotlights the Haitian American immigrant experience against a gorgeous Miami setting. https://t.co/1NUhTAwdrw
Ludi: Shein Mompremier gives a breakout performance in this tale of "making it" in America—if there's any justice she will be a household name. The movie shifts tones awkwardly at times, and the ending is all too frustrating, but again that lead performance is beautiful. #SXSW
Lead actor @SheinMompremier says #immigrants often feel like “worker ants.” In the film "Ludi," the title character living in Little Haiti, Miami, doesn't want to let her family in Haiti down because "she feels like she is the great hope for her family." @WLRN
Just finished watching #Ludi#LudiFilm at @sxsw online. A poignant slice of life film focused on a Haitian-American woman trying to get by and create her own American dream. Enthralling performance by @SheinMompremier. @BantufyFilms#SXSW
