Xime is a 1994 Bissau-Guinean drama film directed by Sana Na N'Hada.
==Plot== In the early 1960s, in the village of Xime in Guinea-Bissau, Iala, the father of Raul and Bedan, is worried about his two sons. The eldest, Raul, animated by desires of revolt, has joined the liberation movement, unknown to anyone. He is wanted by the Portuguese colonial authorities while he studies at a seminary in Bissau. Bedan, the younger of the two, a turbulent young man still a teenager, is almost at the age where he must reluctantly submit to the traditional coming-of-age rituals. One of these is dressing in women's clothing. Bedan is also admiring his father's young fiancé. In the end, Raul is fatally wounded and stumbles to the wedding, and Bedan joins the revolutionary cause.
