The film follows a couple who left Ghana with dreams of a better life in Europe and now live as refugees in Belgrade, Serbia. Siisi is doing everything to integrate. His biggest challenge, however, is to win back the woman he loves. When she disappears one day, Strahinja sets out to find her. As Far as I Can Walk is a reimagining of a traditional medieval epic in which contemporary African migrants take the place of Serbian national heroes. Urgent and timeless at the same time, the adaptation raises questions about identity, tradition, race and love.
