Li Ké Terra (Our Home) tells the story of Miguel and Ruben, two Cape Verdean immigrant descendants who live in Portugal but have no legal documents. They are torn between the desire to be a full Portuguese citizen and the obstacles they find in their day to day. Proud of being who they are they keep on dreaming of their future expressing at the same time their wishes for a better life.
Above all, Miguel and Ruben lead us to one question: what kind of identity has a stateless person?
