In the last decades, the Portuguese-Speaking African Countries (PALOP) have passed through very intense political transformations in which cinema has been an important participant.From an extensive corpus of films, it is presented a mosaic of stories that translate significant elements of these African nations.In the colonial period, cinema represented a strong propaganda instrument for the Portuguese regime; during the struggle against colonialism, cinema was used as a weapon that added efforts to the nationalist movements; in the early years of the new independent nations, cinematographic productions have strengthened the interests of the new states; and, finally, after the 1990s, with the political openness and the multiparty system, various and varied types of cinema began to develop in relation to these five countries (Angola, Cabo Verde, Guinea-Bissau, Mozambique and São Tomé e Príncipe), some more critical, others more focused on entertainment.This study is a guided visit to this filmography, whose main objective is that of broadening the contact with the PALOP's cinemas.These films are not well-known by the Brazilian public, so the study acquires the importance of providing information and access to these films for interested researchers.The order through which the films are presented obeys to comparative elements and highlights aspects that lead to possible criteria for the study of these cinemas
