Fragments of Mindelo 2011

Directed by Lara Plácido

Mindelo is the cultural capital of Cape Verde. Throughout the time generations of writers, painters, singers and intellectual people were the full expression of Cape Verdean art and way of thinking. Fragments of its inhabitants’ lives reveal the force of its history, the beauty of its creativity and, above all, the resistance against the scourge of life in Mindelo, a meeting point of various nationalities.
