Synopsis

Dans sa version originale de quatre-vingt-sept minutes, ce film coproduit par Faria de Almeida et António da Cunha Telles s’intitulait Catembe – 7 Dias Em Lourenço Marques et incluait un reportage sur la dimension touristique de la capitale mozambicaine. Amputé par la censure qui a imposé cent-trois coupes de plans négatifs qui ont été détruits, une deuxième version, de quarante-huit minutes, a également été interdite. Catembe est une œuvre précieuse du cinéma portugais qui est restée longtemps invisible mais que l’on peut désormais découvrir dans une nouvelle copie.

Co-produced by Faria de Almeida with António da Cunha Telles, in its original eighty-seven-minute version the film was called Catembe – 7 Dias Em Lourenço Marques and included a report on the Mozambican capital as a tourist city. Cut by censors who imposed one hundred three cuts corresponding to negative shots that were destroyed, it had a second version (of forty-eight minutes) that was also banned. Catembe is a valuable piece of Portuguese filmmaking that remained unseen for a long time but can now be presented in a new print.
