Seven cuts. Seven exile experiences. The Democratic Republic of Congo and Brazil are reunited with their common history at Calijah, a small beauty salon in the Rio de Janeiro suburb that specializes in afro cuts. It is from there that Fernando "Pablo" Mupapa, the salon's owner and protagonist, cherishes and builds together his dream of an anti-imperialist revolution for his community. Narratives straight from the heart of Africa and that have a lot to teach about the powers that dominate the contemporary world. It's art, it's not art, it's a pamphlet, and it's art again.
