Cesaria Divine Diva

A team of musician-actors: songs, theatre, music... The biopic of Cesaria the Divine Diva! Cesaria Evora, from the Cape Verde Islands, not naturally blessed, began in Mindelo, where music is queen... We know Cesaria for her hits: "Petit pays", "Sodade" etc., but less about her journey. Hence this musical Biopic of the Queen of Morna. Late success, a love for the stage, brazen shyness, wild candour... The mystery of her voice, the vibrant singing of the "Divine Diva" with Mornas, Coladeiras, Funana... We emotionally follow "The Barefoot Diva", from her childhood, her dark hours to the consecration on international stages – with France as a springboard. The Divine Cesaria grappling with injustice. From the height of her glory, she doesn't forget and recounts these wounds, her joys. With the complicity of a team of musician-actors: songs, theatre, music, and surprises, like this rap-slam performed in honour of Cape Verde. Cesaria's journey: humour, joy, the tenderness of islanders, the genius of the Divine Diva! For all audiences aged 10 and up.
