-Director Statement
“This short film, set in the city of Luanda, tells the story of a man with the ‘simple’ dream of trying to stay with the person he loves. In this town, where chaos and peace, beauty and ugliness, corruption and honor meet, Matias will have to do whatever it takes to get what he wants.”
“The world needs to hear, read, see and feel more African stories in new ways, without the alreay stigmatized scenes of misery and war as backdrops (…)”
Mario Bastos
