We will also present the programming of Sarah Maldoror&#8217;s retrospective, co-programmed by IndieLisboa and Cinemateca Portuguesa, taking place during the 18th edition of IndieLisboa between August 21st and September 6th.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The three short films exhibited were shot in Cape Verde and Guinea-Bissau, in the transition to the eighties. In and through them, Sarah Maldoror explores the meaning of an African identity, its history and culture through the parties and popular demonstrations, giving particular emphasis to Carnival. As Lu\u00eds Cabral states in the last of these films, &#8220;it was the cultural resistance capacity of our people that gave us the necessary strength to drive political and military resistance&#8221;. The essential role of culture is thus revealed through the strength and beauty of the masks and through the music and dance that accompany them, as it will be in her subsequent\u00a0oeuvre to be seen during the festival.<\/p>\n<p>&nbsp;<\/p>\n<p>The session takes place on Friday, April 30th, at 7pm,\u00a0<span style=\"font-weight: 400;\">Sala M.
