Nós, Povo das Ilhas

Overview

From a forgotten photo of a group of clandestine Cape-Verdean guerrillas in the mountains of Cuba, Elson, a young filmmaker, searches for the silenced heroes of this daring and little-known military operation, whose main objective was to fulfill Amílcar Cabral’s dream of liberating the country from the clutches of colonialism. In a back-and-forth between the past and the present, the film establishes a conversation with the heroes of the country’s Independence. With them, it travels through the years of struggle in Guinea and post-independence Cape Verde, reflecting on dreams, nightmares, and what the country is today, between utopia and oblivion.
