“Animation allows us to fly and to enter into fantastic worlds. But the documentary footage brings us back to the truthfulness we always pursued. ” Co-director Raúl de la Fuente. Based on the memoir of Polish journalist Ryszard Kapuscinski, who covered the chaos of war in Angola in the 1970s, Another Day Of Life uses surreal animation and live footage to capture the hallucinatory anarchy of warfare. But in spite of the violence, the beauty of Angola and the sparks of humanity we encounter bring light and understanding to a dangerous time.

“Kapuscinski was a born writer and he’ll never be forgotten in Angola. He knew what injustice was.” Sam Jones, The Guardian, Madrid.
