Rain in a Dry Land & Coming to America

Rain in a Dry Land

Rain in a Dry Land is at the forefront of the current crop of migration diaries. It is a book that illuminates both the plight of the African emigrant and a section of American life in equal measure. Following two subject families as they relocate from a camp for internally displaced Somalians to lower class America, director Anne Makepeace never treats them as objects, props, or anything less than real people caught up in global political crises. The video should draw a lot of curiosity and have a firm hold on audiences because to its authenticity and coarseness.

Eddie Murphy’s New Film

On the other hand, Eddie Murphy’s new film has a decent title, ’’Coming to America,’’ a potentially interesting thought of a dark African ruler who heads out undercover to New York to get a spouse and a screenplay that appears to have gotten away from its Doctors before it was totally well. Akeem comes up with an arrangement to go to America to get a spouse he can both love and regard and who acknowledges him for his identity, not his status, and who can be a nonconformist. He and his devoted hireling arrive in Queens, on the grounds that as per Akeem “What better place to discover a ruler than the city of Queens?” They lease a loft in the ghetto neighborhood of Jamaica. Amid their journey at crusing clubs and places, Akeem meets and experiences passionate feelings for Lisa, the little girl of a nearby fast food restaurateur Cleo McDowell. In needing to charm, Lisa, both Akeem and Semmi take employments at McDowell’s, passing themselves off as trade learners.

Akeem’s Journey to Win Lisa

Whatever remains of the film fixates on Akeem’s endeavors to win Lisa in marriage, which is convoluted by Lisa’s lethargic and unsavory sweetheart, Darryl Jenks, whose father possesses “Soul Glo”, a Jheri curl like hairstyling help. Lisa in the long run says a final farewell to Darryl after he reports their engagement to their families and begins dating Akeem. Despite the fact that Akeem flourishes with diligent work and figuring out how everyday citizens live, Semmi is not happy with carrying on with the life of a poor man. At the point when Akeem haphazardly gives their travel cash to the destitute Randolph and Mortimer Duke, Semmi transmits a supplication to the King of Zamunda for money related offer assistance. This causes Akeem’s folks to go to Queens and uncover Akeem’s way of life as a ruler to the McDowells. Mr. McDowell, at first disliking the match as he would not like to see his little girl with a rich person, is delighted that she has in reality pulled in light of a legitimate concern for a greatly well off ruler, however Lisa gets to be distinctly furious and befuddled in the matter of why Akeem misled her about his personality, as he had advised her before that he was really a Zamundan goat herder. Still hurt and irate that Akeem deceived her, she declines to wed him, even after he offers to repudiate his royal position, and he returns home with a broken heart, without wedding the lady chosen for him by his folks. While in transit to the air terminal, King Jaffe comments that Akeem cannot wed Lisa at any rate due to custom, and tries safeguarding himself by saying “Who am I to change it?”

A Happy Ending

At the wedding parade, Akeem, still grief stricken, holds up dejectedly at the sacrificial table as his prospective partner advances down the aisle. Be that as it may, when Akeem lifts the shroud to kiss her, he discovers Lisa rather than Imani. Akeem and Lisa are hitched, and they ride cheerfully in a carriage after the function to the cheers of Zamundans. Seeing such magnificence, Lisa is both shocked and touched by the way that Akeem would have surrendered it only for her. Akeem offers to formally abandon in the event that she does not need an existence like this, but Lisa energetically decays and chooses to wind up instead.

The African Experience in America

The African experience in America in the movie Rain in a Dry Land is pathetic. In Atlanta, Arbai Barre Abdi and her kids Khadija, Sahara, Mainun and Said confront a less extreme atmosphere yet comparative social difficulties, including America’s image of bigotry. They experience social bias amongst Arab and African and Muslim and non-Muslim which adds to the scatters in their country, the families must decode an American code that makes them triple minorities: muslim, immigrant and black. Also, in spite of the fact that the children advance rapidly at school, they are put in consistent classrooms too early, without translations. They fall behind, becoming dispirited. Their parents battle significantly more with interpreting the abilities of pre-mechanical ranchers to the United States job market. The family is nearly finishing their six months’ end of support and the possibility of losing the rooftop over their heads.
