"Li Ké Terra", de Filipa Reis, João Miller Guerra e Nuno Baptista

Li Ké Terra: o filme produzido no âmbito do programa DOCTV-CPLP, bem português (significa ‘A nossa Terra’), traz ares de Cabo Verde. De olhos postos em Ruben e Miguel, dois jovens filhos de imigrantes cabo-verdianos, o documentário de um trio de jovens cineastas – Filipa Reis, João Miller Guerra e Nuno Baptista – convenceu o júri do DocLisboa e ganhou o galardão maior na Competição Portuguesa – o Prémio de Melhor Longa-Metragem.

Li Ké Terra tells the story of Miguel Moreira and Ruben Furtado, two Cape Verdean immigrant descendants who live in Portugal but have no legal documents. They are torn between the desire to be a full Portuguese citizen and the obstacles they find in their day to day. Proud of being who they are they keep on dreaming of their future reflecting their wishes for a better life.
Above all, Miguel and Ruben lead us to one question: What kind of identity has a stateless person?
Li Ké Terra is a sarcastic portrait of two teenagers who are trying to give meaning to their lives.
