Letters From War Cartas Da Guerra

1971. António Lobo Antunes life is brutally interrupted when he is drafted into the Portuguese Army to serve as a doctor in one of the worst zones of the Colonial War, the East of Angola. Away from everything dear and in the uncertainty of war events, only the letters he writes to his wife can make him survive. Based upon the novel D'este viver aqui neste papel descripto: cartas da guerra by António Lobo, a languid war film, draped in a somptueuse love melancholy.
