The Voice of a Paintbrush

Overview

Armando, a shy and intelligent 20-year-old from a low-income family, is passionate about painting. He studies at an art school in central Maputo and lives with his mother in a humble home in the Hulene neighborhood, near a junkyard. After Armando's father passed away, his uncle, Mr. Santos, took responsibility for his education, paying his school fees and bringing him to live closer to the school in the city. Concerned for Armando's future and to keep him away from negative influences, Uncle Santos limits his visits back home to Hulene.
