The Journey of Cape Verde

THE JOURNEY OF CAPE VERDE
(In Search of Identity)

SYNOPSIS

What is Cape Verdeanity? Who am I as Cape Verdean?

A young Cape Verdean lad from the island of Fogo is forced to face his past, present and future in search of his true identity -- Cape Verdeanity.

The Journey of Cape Verde deals with the central theme of Cape Verdeanity as it relates to ethnicity, race, culture, history and other social questions facing the Cape Verdean people.

Allegedly, discovered by Portugal in 1460, Cape Verde became the first slavery port of West Africa in early 1700's where slaves were sold to the crown of Spanish, French and later to the English for their colonies in the New World: Americas and the Caribbean.

The Journey of Cape Verde is a feature documentary film shot over a period of four years. The film develops through a series of journeys through the islands of Cape Verde and her immigrant communities of USA, Portugal, France, island of Madeira, S. Tome and Angola.

"I know how I got here, but I would like to know and understand where I'm going."
"Which route am I to follow to reach my destiny?"
"Being Cape Verdean, our identity is constantly challenged"
