Sem Flash is a 2012 documentary (dir. Bruno Z'Graggen) that captures images of Ricardo Rangel in 2003 in Maputo, during the launch of the exhibition Iluminando Vidas. Ricardo Rangel and the Next Generation (curated by Bruno Z'Graggen and Grant Lee Neuenburg). Rangel speaks about his origins, his experiences as a photojournalist during colonialism, and his love for jazz. His voice is complemented by that of other Mozambican photographers such as Ségio Santimano and Kok Nam, and Mozambican poet and journalist Luís Carlos Patraquim.
Ricardo Achiles Rangel (1924-2009) is Mozambique's foremost photojournalist and one of the greatest African journalists of the twentieth century. Following the tradition of Magnum photographers, Rangel adopted a very critical attitude towards Portuguese colonialism in Mozambique, and was as a result a frequent target of the infamous Portuguese secret police (PIDE). After independence (1975) he contributed to building the new socialist state. As a journalist and a teacher at the Centro de Formação Fotográfica, Rangel influenced a whole generation of young photographers, setting out the basis of a photographic tradition in Mozambique. His extraordinary photographic legacy spans a period of over fifty years. His masterpiece Pão nosso de cada noite [Our nightly bread] (1959-75) documents the intense nightlife of Lourenço Marques (Maputo) and brought him international recognition in the 1990s.
