Sodade Means LongingSodade heisst Sehnsucht
More and more people are looking to find their fortune by emigrating. Of Cape Verde's total population of 1.1 million, some 700,000 live abroad, most of them in the US. This film attempts to capture their feelings torn between hoping for a better life abroad and the greater love of their homeland. Hopes like these are expressed in music. There is hardly a song that does not tell of «sodade», for «sodade» means longing.
