"CAPE VERDE"
On Fire Island in Cape Verde
they resumed harvesting of coffee.
Always with eyes on the mouth
of the
still steamy volanco, the
islanders are now trying to
save
what remains of the
plantations.
The ana
is the worst, and some say
plants present tragedy. A
month after the eruption of the
volcano some of the inhabitants of the áreas
evacuated started to return to the houses that were spared. Many
prefer not to return so close
to what they say is the Devil's Mouth.
Teresa Conceiçāo
and Odacir Junior accompanied the families who
witnessed the events of the few hours that covered the area like a sea of black
ash that sprouted from the center of the earth and
buried what many people took a lifetime to build.

NEUZA
"The
volcano on Fire Island erupted in.... in 1951 and this year on April 2, 1995,
out of the volcano came materials such as lava etc…
In this latest
eruption we
can feel the movement of the Volcano on Fire Island, and we do not know what is
going to happen."*
*
*
REPORTER:
NO ONE KNOWS
WHAT WILL HAPPEN.*
IT IS TWELVE
DAYS AFTER THE START OF THE ERUPTION
I
THIS IS NEUZA,
SHE IS A STUDENT IN HER SECOND YEAR AT SCHOOL, IN THE VILLAGE OF MOSTEIROS.
A CONCLUSION WAS MADE TO NOT WALK AWAY FROM THEIR HOMES
DESPITE SPECIALIST OPINION. WITH SO MUCH
UNCERTAINTY IN THIS REGION DUE TO THE MOST RECENT ERUPTION, *THIS CLASS OF STUDENTS,
WHICH SHOULD HAVE 36, ONLY HAS 16 *
*
*
SUPER:
PROF.VICTOR:
TEACHER,
MOSTEIROS SCHOOL*
"They do
not come, the parents do not trust it, they do not want their children to leave
their homes. If the lava comes this way, they do not let them come to schoo.. "*
*
*
REPORTER:
THE TEACHER
HAS EVEN DEDICATED LESSONS TO THE VOLCANO. BUT THE EXPLANATIONS DO NOT
APPEAR TO BE ENOUGH TO CALM THE STUDENTS’ NERVES.
*
*
*
NEUZA
"- Was
it a big scare?* (REPORTER)
- `Yes, because I do not know if the volcano
will explode again." *
*
*
(BLACK)*
*
REPORTER *
THE CLOUD OF
VOLCANIC SMOKE IS VISIBLE FROM MORE THAN 90 KILOMETERS AWAY.*
ONE CAN ONLY
IMAGINE THE TERROR THAT THE LOCALS FEEL.
IT IS A FEAR
SHARED BY MANY. KNOWING HOW CLOSE THEY LIVE TO THE VOLANO. *
THE ERUPTION HAPPENED IN THE CENTER OF THE ISLAND.
THE AREA
NEAR THE ANCIENT CRATER THAT STOOD DORMANT FOR THOUSANDS OF YEARS.
THUS THE CURRENT
CRATER WAS FORMED, WITH ONE REGION SPREADING OVER 8 KILOMETERS IN DIAMETER.
THEREFORE, IN ANY PLACE, A NEW MOUTH OF THE VOLANCO COULD FORM.
THIS AREA
HAS MANY DANGERS BUT SOME LOCALS NOW CONSIDER IT SAFE, WITH THE ERUPTION NOW
CALMING DOWN. AFTER 44 YEARS DORMANT, NOBODY CONSIDERED THE VOLCANO AS A
THREAT.
IT WAS A
TRAGEDY FOR THOSE IN THE VILLAGE OF ‘CHÃ DE CALDEIRAS’, AND THEY NEEDED TO FLEE
THEIR HOMES QUICKLY.*
A LARGE PART
OF THE POPULATION HAS RECIEVED IMMEDIATE
AID.*
INCLUDING THE
1,300 PEOPLE FROM CHA DE CALDEIRAS. TOGETHER WITH THE INHABITANTS OF
NEIGHBOURING VILLAGES, THEY WERE TAKEN TO MONTEIROS AND SÃO FILIPE. ACCOMODATION
AND EMERGENCY ARRANGEMENTS HAVE BEEN PROVIDED FOR ALL RESIDENTS. *

SUPER:
FRANC ISCO BAPTISTA
RESIDENT
" I WAS SLEEPING NEXT TO MY WIFE UNTIL WE WERE WOKEN UP BY
A NOISE…A NOISE FROM THE DOOR. THERE WAS A GUY STANDING THERE AND HE TOLD US TO
GRAB EVERYTHING WE COULD. THE LAVA WAS SO CLOSE TO US, BUT I HAD A LOT OF
ENERGY IN THE PANIC. I DID NOT GO BACK TO THE HOUSE, WE GOT IN A TRUCK THAT
CAME AS SOON AS IT COULD. EVERYONE IN THE GUEIT COUNTRYSIDE NEEDS TO BE SAFE
FROM THE LAVA.”*
*
REPORTER
BETWEEN FEAR
AND HOPE,MANY
PASS THE DAY WITH EARS TO THE RADIO, LISTENING TO
UPDATES ON THE VOLANO’S DEVELOPMENTS. AFTER A TRAMAUMATISING JOURNEY, THESE
RESIDENTS ARE STILL STRUGGLING ON THROUGH BODY AND SOUL.*

BERTA DA SILVA
RESIDENT
NO TRANSLATION
REPORTER
THERE ARE 200
DISPLACED IN MOSTEIROS, AND MORE THAN 4 THOUSAND IN SÃO FILIPE, THANKS TO THE VOLCANO.
ONLY TIME WILL TELL IF ANY CAN RETURN TO THEIR HOMES.

(EVENING

FOUR NIGHTS AFTER
THE BEGINNING OF THE ERUPTION THE INTENSITY SLOWED DOWN A LITTLE. BUT ONLY
ENOUGH FOR OBSERVING, WHILST MAINTAINING SOME DISTANCE.

VISITORS DO NOT WALK AWAY.

MÁRIO SOARES
“We do not
know what will happen, we
are waiting to see one way
or another. What goes, goes,
and what happens if by the
power of God. We have
praying that the god almighty
father, who has superior power delivers us some good
will.”
LUIS NEVES
“We are trying
to communicate with ministers as much as posible. We are setting up tents in safe areas for
residents who have been displaced.”
ALBERTO FERNANDES
“I am not from
this island but as a citizen of this country I feel a Little bit worried, I think the whole
country is feeling the same.”
REPORTER
"THE
VOLCANO INGITES THE WHOLE OF CAPE VERDE, AFTER THROWING DESPAIR AT RESIDENTS
WHO HAVE ESCAPED THE LIQUID FIRE FOR NOW. FOR THOSE OF US WHO HAVE NOT
EXPERIENCED SUFFERING FROM THIS ERUPTION, THE FASCINATION REMAINS WITH THE
PHENOMENON, AND OF COURSE WITH THE CONCERN OF A POTENTIAL NEW MOUTH OPENING
CLOSER TO HOMES.”
*
THE GREATEST
DANGER IS THE ADVACEMENT OF LAVA.
*
THE BLACK SEA
COMING FROM THE CENTER OF THE EARTH STARTED TO EXTEND INTO THE GREAT
BASIN THAT
THE VOLCANO CLAIMS FOR ITS OWN. THE AREA, WHICH USED TO BE FAMOUS FOR ITS WINE,
MONATARIES AND ECLECTIC CULTURES.
*
THE LAVA
PERSUES SLOWLY BUT EFFECTIVELY TO THE VILAGES, FROM WHICH MOST PEOPLE HAVE
ALREADY LEFT.*
*
MANY ATTEMPT
TO RECOVER THEIR BELONGINGS IN THE SHORT TIME THEY HAVE LEFT. *
* THEY
ARE HELPED BY TRUCKS, FROM BOTH THE MILITARY AND VOLUNTEERS. *
*
HILARIO A
ROLLING KNIGHT, HAS ALREADY CARRIED 22 CHILDREN AND THREE WOMEN OUT OF THE
DANGER ZONE. NOW HIS VEHICHLE HAS RUN OUT OF FUEL, HILARIO WILL HAVE TO WAIT
FOR HIMSELF TO BE RESCUED IN ORDER TO RESUME HIS RECOVERY EFFORTS.*
*
HILARIO DE DIDA
"WHILE
THE VILLAGERS ARE TOGETHER IN MONASTERIES, PEOPLE, THEIVES HAVE BEEN INTO THEIR
HOMES AND STOLEN FROM THEM! THEY ALREADY STOLE 32 CHICKENS!”
*
*
REPORTER
THE THEFT
AND THE VANDALISM REQUIRE THE POLICE TO STAY ON SITE 24 HOURS A DAY. *
WITH THE CAPE
VERDIAN ARMY TRANSPORTING THE MAXIMUM NUMBER OF PEOPLE THEY CAN. WITH AUTHORITIES
ALSO FINDING A SOLUTION FOR HILARIO’S FUEL PROBLEM. .*
*

REPORTER
"- Are
you happy now?”
HILARIO
“- I’m happy
now. I have already been able to help the children, some neighbours and some
elderly residents who cannot walk. I have driven near the hot lava, but my
tires have held through it." *
*
*
AND THERE GOES
THE LONE KNIGHT. LIBERTY DOES NOT HAVE WHEELS. IT HAS BEEN TWO YEARS SINCE THE
LAST ERUPTION, AND HE NEVER BELIEVED THE BEAST WOULD OPEN AGAIN.
*
HIS FAMILY
HAVE LIVED UNDER THE VOLCANO FOR 42 YEARS, BUT NOW HE SAYS NEITHER HE OR HIS
FAMILY WILL CONSIDER IT AGAIN. *
*
THEY COME
BACK BY FOOT, TO SEE THE GROUNDS OF THE DEVASTATION. *
*
*
THE
PRESIDENT OF CAPE VERDE COMES TO VISIT THE VOLANCO SITE,
AFTER FIVE
DAYS OF DEVASTATION.
ANTÓNIO MASCARENHAS
MONTEIRO BRINGS SOME SOLIDARITY TO THE PEOPLE WITHOUT
HOMES. *
HE PLEADS
WITH INTERNATIONAL LEADERS TO PROVIDE AS MUCH HELP AS THEY CAN DURING THE CRISIS.*
*
IN THE
PRIMARY SCHOOL IN THE TOWN OF MOSTEIROS, DAISY DESCRIBES GRABBING EVERYTHING
SHE COULD FROM HER HOME, TO GO AND SEE THE PRESIDENT. *
*
REPORTER
*
BUT THE
PRESIDENT SAYS THAT AT THE MOMENT IT IS STILL A HIGH RISK AREA, IT IS NOT A
PLACE TO LIVE, AND THAT RESIDENTS NEED TO HAVE PATIENCE. *
*BUT DAISY IS IMPATIENT,
AS SHE DOES NOT KNOW WHERE SHE WILL LIVE AFTER THE VOLCANO HAS CALMED.
*
*
WE WILL SEE
THE AREA WHERE THE VOLCANO FIRST ERUPTED FOR THE FIRT TIME. *
*
DAISY
"- Daisy
why are you crying?
- There was
a guard house near my land. But it has suffered no damage, nothing. Where the
fire was, it was all mine, all my land. This is where I feed my entire family, we
live off the land. "*
*
*
REPORTER
THE HOUSE
WHERE THEY LIVED, IN THE VILLAGE OF PORTELA, IS STILL THREATENED BY THE
ADVANCEMENT OF THE LAVA.*
*
THE MAIN
ROAD STILL CUT OFF BY THE LAVA FLOW, AND WITH AN HOURS DRIVE TOWARDS THEIR
VULNERABLE VILLAGE. DAIST HAS DECIDED IT WOULD BE FASTER TO GO ON FOOT, WITH A
LARGE GROUP OF PEOPLE, ALL HOPING THEY CAN BRING AS MUCH BACK FROM THEIR HOUSES
AS POSSIBLE. *

SOME HAVE
BEEN WITHOUT HOMES SINCE THE DISASTER BEGAN. AT LEAST IT WAS AWAY FROM

REPORTER
THE VOLCANO
IS ALREADY LESS THAT ONE KILOMETER FROM THE VILLAGE OF BANGAERIA. THERE ARE
ONLY SMALL ACCESSIBLE PATHWAYS TO NEIGHBOURING VILLAGES. TITO MONTROND DOES NOT
FORGET PAST TRADGEDIES.*
*
TITO
RESIDENT *
"If we
go closer to the mountains we can see the old mound where the last eruption
took place."*

TITO IS A

here because i have memories here.
If he stays, i will stay”

REPORTER
BUT THE
LATEST DRAMA IS SMALL COMPARED TO WHAT RELATIVES OF TITO ARE EXPERIENCING.
SOME HAVE
LIVED HERE FOR NEARLY 90 YEARS, AND THEY HAVE ACCEPTED THAT IT IS FINALLY TIME
TO MOVE TO SAFETY. *

AVELINA MONTROND *
"I want to stay because of mum…………….there are many other
places, mother. But there is only one for her. " *

REPORTER
THE FAMILY’S
TIES TO THEIR HOME AND THE LAND MUST BE OF IMPORTANCE IF THEY ARE TO RISK THE
DANGER TO STAY. GOVERNMENT ORDERS HAVE INSTRUCTED ALL TO EVACTUATE, BUT THE
RESISTORS REMAIN FIRM.
*
FOR
BERNARDINA, AT 90 YEARS OLD, IT IS TOO LATE TO CHANGE HOME.
* THE MORE
CLOSE TO THE FIRE, THE MORE DRAMATIC THE SCENES BECOME. *

DAVID
MONTEIRO WILL WITNESS THE HOUSE HE WAS BROUGHT UP IN BE ENGULFED BY THE FLOW.
THE HOUSE WHERE HE WAS BORN MIRACULOUSLY SURVIVED THE 1951 ERUPTION, BUT THIS
TIME, ITS NOT SO LUCKY.

*
*
DAVID MONTEIRO
"I was born during the last eruption, my moter said that i was more
violent than the volcano. My parents took up to the perimeter of the old hill,
where the country went to rejoice after all we lost back then."*
*
IT IS THE
PLACE WHERE DAVID’S MOTHER RESISTED THE LAVA INVASION. *
LOOKING FOR
FRUIT, TRYING TO SURVIVE, BUT NOTHING MORE CAN BE DONE.*
BERNADINA
MORTROND BELIEVES THAT AFTER THE FLOW HAS STOPS THEY WILL BE ABLE TO RETURN TO
THEIR HOMES. *
*
*
ILCA
"if it
were up to me i would not go to São Filipe. I want to
stay with her, but my mother will not allow it. Everyday day im there with her, but she does not want to go."*
DAVID
"She cannot go to
São Filipe because she has health problems..for more than 15 years. That
is undoubtably the reason why.*”
REPORTER
“Does she want to end
her life here?”
DAVID
“Well, thats the
way she thinks.”
*
*
IT ALL SEEMS
TERRIBLY HOPELESS. MUCH IS ALREADY LOST, AND LAVA IS GETTING CLOSER AND CLOSER
TO THEIR HOUSE. *
IT HAS
ALREADY COVERED TO THE ROADS THAT LEAD TO OTHER VILLAGES. WE ARE CONSTANTLY
FINDING PEOPLE WHO DO NOT WANT TO LEAVE. *
*
(ONLY
PASSING ALLOWED) *
A TEAM OF
PORTUGUESE SEISMOLOGISTS WILL CHECK THE SITUATION ON THE OTHER SIDE OF THE LAVA
WALL, IN FRONT OF BATALHA. *
*
*
JOHN FONESCA
*
"Well…this
is a losing battle…well…i would not call it a battle…
So far the process has
been slow in terms of the development of the eruption, what we see is the
advance of the lava front…
We expect that this pace
will be maintained but we have to be prepared for a sudden acceleration. But at
this moment there is nothing that makes up expect this will happen."

THIS IS THE FASTEST
LAVA FLOW ON THE ISLAND, SO FLOW IS FASTER THAN THIS.

"The flow has moved 30cm from yesterday. We have
15 of our own teams looking
at the speak of the lava and have realised the
increased risk to inhabitants…at least presently we should be issuing
training to those at risk from this
volanco to increase the chance of survivial.”
THEN THE
INEVITABLE HAPPENS. THE LAVA REACHES THE FAMILY HOUSE AND DINA MUST GIVE UP HER
FAMILY HOME. . . *

DURING THE
NIGHT ALMOST ALL OF THE VILLAGE WAS CONSUMED. *

CLOSED THE GATEWAY TO THIER VILLAGE, AND NO ROAD TO GET TO THEM MEANS NO TENTS
CAN BE DELIVERED. BUT ALL ARE THANKFUL TO BE HERE. *

THE ONLY WAY
THROUGH NOW IN THE RIDGE TO THE EDGE OF THE LAVA FLOW. THE LAST PEOPLE AND
POSESSIONS ARE LUCKY TO BE ABLE TO ESCAPE. *

MUMMA DINA

DEVISTATION OF THE HOUSE, WHICH NO LONGER EXISTS.

to lie to her, but she will forgive us. "*
*
*
THEY ARE THE
LAST TO LEAVE THE BOILING CONDITIONS. TITO AND THE CHILDREN PART WAYS WITH
THEIR FAMLY HOME, AND JOIN THE OTHER REFUGEES AT SÃO FILIPE. WHEN THEY FINALLY
LEAVE ON A TRUCK THEY WILL PASS THE VOLANCO’S MOUTH AND SEE THE CAUSE OF THE DEVASTATION.*
*
*
THERE IS NOT
LONGER HOPE. THE LAVA HAS EATEN THE GROUNDS AND THE EARTH. IT HAS DESTROYED
YEARS OF WORK AND PREVENTS REFUGEES FROM BRINGING MOST OF THEIR FURNITURE.

ON THE DAY
OF THE ERUPTION A WOMAN WHO IS 9 MONTHS PREGDANT ESCAPED BY FOOT WITH 5
CHILDREN TO SAFETY.

"it is
not now that will be the greatest difficulty. In a week or ten days we will not
be lacking in food, the real problem will be in a month or two, when people
return to their homes or land to find what was once there is now destroyed. The
solidarity must exist throughout this time.”
REPORTER
ONE MONTH AFTER THE
EXPLOSION, THE VOLCANO HAS GAINED A QUARTER OF THE TERRITORY CONQUERED, BUT IT
HAS LOST A GREAT AMOUNT OF ENERGY. *
THE INCANDESCENT RIVER HAS STOPPED AT THE CRATER. IT NOW
DOES NOT FEED THE LAVA, WHICH HAS ALSO STOPPED COMPLETELY. 400 METERS FROM
PORTELA. *
ANOTHER OPEN
FISSURE ON THE MOUNTAIN HAS ALSO STOPPED FLOWING. PEOPLE ARE VERY LUCKY FOR IT
TO HAVE STOPPED WITHOUT ENGULFING THE TWO NEAREST SETTLEMENTS. *
IT COULD BE
A SIGN OF HOPE, OR A DELAY OF AGONY. THERE IS A CHANCE THE VOLCANO AN STILL
RETURN TO ACTIVITY.
