Description

Victória, Mariana and Vasco are three young Mozambicans with physical disabilities, who live in the suburbs of Maputo, Mozambique's capital city. Victória organizes a fashion show for other physically disabled women. Mariana builds friendships and overcomes urban architectural barriers. Vasco has his own business, repairing shoes in the informal sector. Their lives reveal their physical, psychological and emotional challenges and raises questions about self-acceptance and how to find one's place in society.
