On the verge of complete ruin, this footage bears witness to the birth of Guinean cinema as part of the decolonising vision of Amílcar Cabral, the liberation leader assassinated in 1973. In collaboration with Guinean filmmakers Sana na N’Hada and Flora Gomes, and many other allies, Filipa César imagines a journey in which this fragile material from the past becomes a visionary prism through which to look. Digitised in Berlin and screened in multiple locations — forming a kind of transnational itinerant cinema — the archive gives rise to debates, storytelling and future visions. From isolated villages in Guinea-Bissau to European capitals, these silent reels become a space where people search for answers to a world in crisis.
