November 20, 18:30, Cine Atlantico, Luanda

Four veterans of Angola’s civil war, from different sides, journey by boat down the Kwando River on a voyage through their past and its nightmares. Once they tried to kill each other, but 20 years later the former enemies are searching for understanding, forgiveness and reconciliation. Shot against a spectacular backdrop of African savannah, MY HEART OF DARKNESS is a film about unthinkable suffering and brutality, of disappointment, but most of all of hope. Of how a common fate and shared traumas steer the course of four lives on a journey that will change them for ever.
