The son of a São Toméan mother and a Cape Verdean father, Bruno Furtado, known professionally as Ghoya, is a rapper and activist born in the Fontaínhas neighborhood of Amadora. Having experienced poverty and social exclusion, he stands out for incorporating Cape Verdean Creole and other Afro-Portuguese elements into his lyrics, telling stories about discrimination, social marginalization, police violence, forced neighborhood redevelopment, and the legacy of Portuguese colonialism.

Complô offers a portrait of Ghoya both as an artist and as a man, reflecting on the decade he spent incarcerated and showing how prison became a space of resistance, inspiration, and protest.
