A personal and political film, MANGO explores what it is like to live with fibroids, whilst being a millennial and striving to make a life for yourself. Zadie’s story offers a clear perspective of black female interiority when carrying pain, and the loneliness of it all, in an honest and humorous look at what happens when our bodies begin to change.
