For more than two years, João Garcia Miguel and Francisco Luís Parreira have been collecting stories from “our” war in Africa from their protagonists, wondering why they “lie so blatantly”.  “Survival is in itself a destructive indifference to the question of truth and lies,” writes João Garcia Miguel. “The absolute fiasco of Portuguese fiction, even theatrical fiction, about the war in Africa lies in its memorialist basis, which projects the notion of a service rendered to the truth. But without a true validation of the myth, that is, without the perception of the mythical contour – only capable mean of perceiving the decision that leads to the war – where the Portuguese experience is still lying, there is no understanding of what fundamentally happened in Africa (or in Brazil, or in the East).” This is what this performance is about.
