CRETCHEU

By Plata o Plomo - Maurício Franco and Filipe Traslatti

These are the days before Carnival in Mindelo (CAPE VERDE). By depicting the trajectory of some apparently ordinary people, while getting ready for the big party, the film draws a passionate portrait of the people of São Vicente Island. Their personal stories are permeated by the historical and cultural context of the country, culminating in the cathartic carnival parade.
