Pakleppa continues by touching on various themes, making what the film is really about unclear. He shows problems such as the highly-restricted freedom of speech, the troublesome establishment of a democracy, and the enormous gap between the poor and the rich. We take a look inside an exorbitantly luxurious shopping district in the capital Luanda. Men in expensive suits voice sales pitches in a showroom filled with shiny red sports cars. In a rich neighbourhood, Angola is suddenly a land of white mansions, swimming pools and swaying palm trees. A street urchin says: "Angola's wealth belongs to us all. But only the leaders and the wealthy profit from it."
