It is an initiative of the film club of the Confederation of the theatrical core of Miragaia, form the 17th to 23 rd of January, at 21.30h.

It is a different cinematographic approach for five days, the auditorium of the musical group Miragaia, shows a film series dedicated to the 24th of December of the seventies, during the colonial war. According to the filmmakers invited to this event, Margarida Cardoso, "is difficult for me to think of them as a cycle, since this was the original proposal put to us, Cineclube. It is an opportunity we give to ourselves, the later generation, trying to understand this complex web of Colonial Decembers. My grandmother told me repeatedly the story of the 24 days from the 70's he received a reel, in which my father was in it. This thing seems so far distance from us, the now generation, an impossible thing to achieve. We want, we have, (let's admit it is not so linear, but when I speak of these things, are trying to guess the possible pain of my grandmother Beatrice). The only news that she had from my father was from a brown ribbon that she also could not hear over and over, because she didn't own a reader, was dependent on a body and soul player of a longing multiplier (s ). "This is the slogan for one of the documentaries "Christmas 1971" which shows the reports of the experiences of the Portuguese military in Africa, by recording these memories erased by the Salazar regime. It shows the impoverished and dumb countryman who did not question the national goal urging their young to leave for the colonial war. Another highlight of the film is Antonio Pedro de Vasconselos with, "Goodbye until my return," which describes some of the most significant scenes of the war in Guinea and the tragic fate of those who returned with the "mystic paranoid."
