LIGHT DROPS


Rui lived his childhood in Mozambique in a small village in the woods at the frontier of a mysterious river. Son of Portuguese colonists, his best friend is Ana, a black girl godchild of his mother. He soon learned to recognize two distinct realities: the Europeans and the Africans, and love and violence.
At fourteen confronted with the tragic destruction of his childhood, Rui will choose his way between the two margins of his river.
