Amílcar
May 3 @ 2:00 PM PDT
Agricultural engineer Amílcar Cabral (1924–1973) dreamed of freedom for Guinea-Bissau and Cape Verde in West Africa and set about making that liberation happen. In this impressionistic documentary, the life of this remarkable revolutionary unfolds through letters Cabral wrote to his wives, set to a soundtrack of slogans and dreams. Shot in 16mm, the film tells a tale of love, political idealism, and betrayal as Cabral’s guerrilla war against Portuguese rule ultimately led to freedom he would not live to see.
