Plot

Inspired by a true story, the journey begins when three childhood friends from Ethiopia reunite at various stages in their mundane lives as struggling musicians. Together, they embark upon a musical mission to bring modern Ethiopian music to the world. Hardships, triumphs, and rude awakenings ultimately test their faith, friendship, and honor while struggling to make their music a success. Filled with pulsating rhythms, and a colorful cast of characters, Journey to Lasta brings an inspiring story of the "underdog" and vividly paints an honest and vibrant portrayal of the immigrant experience in America.
