Description
Sambizanga    Sarah Maldoror presents a groundbreaking revelation in her work that documents the emergence of Angola’s movement for independence. Drawing from authentic events, Sambizanga portrays the journey of a young lady from the outskirts of Luanda toward the heart of the city in search of her spouse who was apprehended by the Portuguese authorities.  

 

Monangambé    During a prison visit, a woman confides a promise to her husband, setting the stage for an unexpected chain of events. Tragically, a sentinel’s misconstrued perception ignites a calamitous sequence, subjecting the couple to the harrowing ordeals of interrogation and torment.
