It’s winter in Minnesota, and an immigrant Zimbabwean family is preparing for the wedding of their eldest daughter.
But when the bride insists on observing roora, a traditional bride-price ceremony, it opens a deep rift in the household.
Rowdy and affectionate, Familiar pitches tradition against assimilation among the members of one devoted family. Which will prove stronger: the customs they keep… or the secrets they’ve kept buried?
