This paper discusses documentary films shown on Portuguese television, focusing on whether historical films such as Furtado's A Guerra can be considered truly documentary. A Guerra is essentially a testimonial documentary & an excellent example of this genre, but this type of film raises the question of what is documentary & what is historical, the latter being subject to interpretation in oral testimonial accounts. This question is addressed with regard to A Guerra's account of the insurrection in Luanda & the north of Angola in 1961 as that country sought its independence from Portugal.
