Synopsis

Dreaming of big adventures and of defending his homeland, a young Portuguese enlists in the army during World War I and is sent to war in Africa. Left behind by his platoon, he starts a solitary journey through the mystical Macua indigenous territory, travelling on foot over a thousand kilometres in search of his dream.

Critics' reviews

"A film that’s technically rather polished but hardly surprising (...) It’s easy to coldly appreciate some of Mosquito’s aspects, then, but emotionally, it just doesn’t pack quite the punch it should"

Marta Bałaga: Cineuropa
