Scenario
Chloé Abraham’s directorial debut, The Taste of Mango, is an engaging, hypnotic, haunting, and personal meditation on family, memory, identity, violence, and love. At its center are three extraordinary women: the director’s mother, Rozana, his grandmother, Jean, and the director herself. Their stories, sometimes difficult, sometimes joyful, speak to the tangled and ever-changing nature of heritage and art; protecting the people we love at the same time.
