Soldier of Goa

Overview

In the 60s, Fernando, a young Portuguese soldier is imprisoned in Goa following the invasion by Indian troops. With no correspondence from his family or girlfriend, he begins to lose his connection to both and to his past, while bonding with the Indian people. While imprisoned, he establishes a routine by doing something he enjoys - cutting hair and trimming the beards of Indian officers, with whom he forms friendships. When he finally receives news that the Portuguese are returning home, Fernando has already decided to stay.
