Synopsis
Moça retrata a história do espírito justiceiro de uma moça vestida de branco que assombra as noites, na Marginal de Luanda, à procura de quem (o governo) desalojou arbitrariamente a sua família de uns terrenos, causando angústia e o desencanto do seu pai até à morte. Moça é também um registo de uma cidade de Luanda em ebulição, que muda com as suas gentes, com os seus acertos e com as suas contradições: nela, presente e passado convivem nem sempre harmoniosamente.
About the director
Born and raised in Angola, Denis used to tell stories to his elder siblings before bed. At 11 he migrated to France where he would found a passion for movies and the art of storytelling. When he discovered that you could actually learn how to make a film, he changed his life plans and decided to became a film director. He worked in France, directing music videos and in 2010 he cameback to Angola and started working on music videos for local superstar artists. He directed more than 100 music videos. Besides being a music video director he started other business and almost forgot his dream of becoming a film director, until the pandemic hit and he decided to work on achieving his long forgotten dream, becoming a film director. Moça, is his first work.
