Jalissa and her dad aren't close, but when he invites her to Jamaica, his homeland, for the first time, she says yes.She's running from heartbreak and a loss of her own; he's running out of time.As they travel through sun-drenched towns and navigate tangled family roots, old wounds open and long-held silences begin to break. They're both trying to outrun something-but along the way, they cross paths with people whose stories shift their own, helping them face the past, reckon with the present and reimagine what comes next.Bitter Melon is a tender, funny, heart-bruised road trip into memory, mortality and the fierce, fragile love between a daughter and the father she's still learning to understand.
