7 Haircuts in Congo

Documentary

One hair salon. Seven haircuts. Seven experiences of exile. The documentary stars the owner of the salon, Fernando “Pablo” Mupapa, as he unfolds from the haircut ritual to open himself up to the voices and reports of immigrants from the Democratic Republic of Congo living in Brazil. Through a connection with Africa, the dialogues between Pablo and his clients recorded by the filmmakers reveal assertions of identity and the dream of an anti-imperialist revolution.

Directed by Luciana Bezerra, Gustavo Melo, Pedro Rossi
