Saturday Born
A film by Saabeah
Saturday Born is an introspective, questioning portrait of a woman caught between two worlds. When Ama, a struggling artist, is wrenched back to her father’s homeland by an unforeseen crisis, she is forced to confront the tangled legacy of blood, culture, and expectation. Against a backdrop of lush landscapes and vivid memories, Saturday Born charts a powerful journey of self-discovery, rebellion, and reconciliation.
A visceral meditation on identity and womanhood, this film speaks to the heart of the diaspora — and to anyone who has ever faced the quiet, aching question: Who am I meant to become? Bold, unflinching, and deeply cinematic, Saturday Born is a testament to the courage it takes to forge your own path in a world that demands you choose.
