Synopsis
Daniel e Daniela is the story of a father who takes his daughter on a journey to her origins. They travel through Cape Verde, São Tomé and Guinea-Bissau, both guided by the desire to see, know and talk. Between laughter, songs and books, everything they will find along the way is a pretext for another story that interweaves past and present, between Nubians, Carthaginians and Egyptians, slavery and colonialism, racism and prejudice; everything is matter for another philosophy lesson, a reflection on the History of Africa or the challenges of development. Daniel, 83, wants to leave his daughter Daniela, 12, with knowledge and critical thinking, preparing her for the future with a heart full of hope and freedom. After all, in Daniel's own words: "the greatest investment is the human one".
