“Cesária Évora” by Ana Sofia Fonseca
Documentary
A new vision of the life of the Cape Verdean singer. The story of a black, African woman from a poor background who, despite not meeting the normal model of success, was able to overcome all the conditions that would normally keep her out of the limelight and reached the top of the music scene worldwide.
Ana Sofia Fonseca's documentary, with archival footage, some previously unseen and others rare, and unique testimonies from people who knew her, who follow the struggles and success of the ‘barefoot diva’, from the privacy of her home to the dressing rooms of the world. Her voice took her from Cape Verde to international stardom, but her only dream was to be free and have a home.
