Mikambaru

“Mikambaru” is a word invented by the alter ego of one of the characters. The film reflects on the post-colonial Africandiaspora, and the relationship with the “Other”. Questions the mental and emotional boundaries that change from generation to generation, through the poem “Construir” by Alda Espírito Santo. It’s a fairy tale of stereotypes,archetypes and religious figures who tell their own story.

The session will be followed by a talk with filmmaker Vanessa Fernandes.
