Exilio en África

2019 · 73 min · Documentary

In the late 1970s, at the height of the Argentine civil-military dictatorship, a group of more than 60 Argentines who had been exiled in various European countries left their homes once again to move with their families to Mozambique, a recently independent former Portuguese colony mired in a terrible civil war. Their goal: to work as volunteers in the construction of the Socialist State promoted by the African leader Samora Machel against the interference of the then racist South African government.
