Sense8 Finale: 8 Ups & 2 Downs From 'Amor Vincit Omnia'

2. Nomi And Amanita's Wedding

Sense8 Finale
Netflix

There's not much to say here really. Nomi and Amanita are not only the best relationship on Sense8, they're one of the best couples on television period. And witnessing the duo's wedding before we bid farewell to them forever was an absolute necessity.

The two women may have pledged their life to one another a long time ago, but in Sense8's swan song we get to see them honour that love in front of their friends and family. Of course, because it's Sense8, they get to do this on the Eiffel Tower in Paris.

The dialogue is really great in this scene. It's almost as if the scriptwriters were using Amanita and Nomi's vows to address a bigger issue. That by accepting the fact that people change overtime, your relationship will thrive. Both Jamie Clayton and Freema Agyeman deliver their best performances on the show here.

It was during this sequence that it truly felt like we were preparing to say goodbye to these characters once and for all. It was the perfect ending to Amanita and Nomi's storyline. Additionally, the fireworks display that takes place after the wedding is reminiscent of the July 4th fireworks that the cluster watched together back in Season 1, only they were more divided than ever back then. Now, they're together. Perhaps forever.

No. You're crying.
