Half a Yellow Sun is an adaptation of a novel from Chimamanda Ngozi Adichie. The film is a love story that follows twin sisters who are caught up in the outbreak of the Nigerian Civil War in the 1960s.

Olanna (Thandie Newton) and Kainene (Anika Noni Rose) have returned to Nigeria after an education in England, they live a well to do life in Nigeria and mix with important people.

Olanna moves in with her lover, a revolutionary lecturer Odenigbo (Chiwetel Ejiofor) and his houseboy Ugwu (John Boyega). It is a complex relationship, his mother dislikes her and wants her son to to marry someone else. She even engineers him to get drunk and have sex with her servant woman which leaves her pregnant.

Kainene takes over the family interests and pursues a career in commerce and falls in love with a white British writer, Richard (Joseph Mawle.)

Their lives are intertwined with the Igbo peoples struggle to establish the independent country of Biafra and the brutal civil war that followed. Olanna struggles hardship, with no money or even a house to live in, moving from place to place and escaping the bombs. Kainene thrives dealing in the black market.

The story comes across like a soap opera, at one point Olanna sleeps with Richard as an act of revenge. The plot also confuses you if you are not familiar with the history of the region. Some of the writing is a bit languid but the actors deliver heartfelt performances although it is a choppy melodrama.
