Synopsis
Fati and her husband travelled to Italy with dreams of instant prosperity. She and her. Husband used all their savings to go through the back way through Libya, leaving their children in the care of her in laws. When they arrived in Italy, they got there as undocumented migrants living in squalid conditions in a camp with an uncertain future. Back home her children were not receiving adequate care and she had fallen pregnant with her next child. After a few months, she chose to ask the Ghanaian embassy to help repatriate her. Her husband was furious as he had hoped to use her pregnancy to expedite the regularization of their stay in Europe. Upon her return, she is faced with the stigma of returning a failure. Her neighbors, friends and family do not understand why she left Eldarado to return to poverty – they whisper and gossip behind her back. Now that Fati has returned, her husband has asked for her divorce and her in laws refuse to give her the children back. Her day-to-day life is one of deprivation and poverty. Will she succeed in reuniting with her with her children and will she come to regret her decision?
