Plot/Synopsis

[edit]

A decision was reached by Everlane and Lara from Brazil and Mozambique, respectively, who are both black filmmakers, to mirror by travelling to each other's country in a criss-cross manner and then, looking at each other's films inquisitively to pick out the missing traits of their black identities on both sides in order to fill in the missing trait gaps.[3][2]
