Why it’s a Monday Morning Maybe

With a box office flop and almost no lasting buzz, this one could be a tough watch. Keep your phone handy.

Based on critics, audiences, awards, box office and buzz. Details below.

Is it for you?

Who'll love it
A natural pick for a family movie night and anyone who likes a story with emotional weight. Leaves you with something to think about. Same wavelength as The Lion King.
The mood
Feel-good.
The pace
Lively and easy to follow, at 1 hr 1 min. Done before bedtime.
What might put you off
  • No age rating on record, so check it first for young kids.
  • It's in another language, so expect subtitles (or a dub).
  • Not the one if you want explosions or easy laughs.

A black and a white woman meets in Dar es Salam because of their men, and starts a friendship, despite their different background.
