Camilo de Sousa (born 29 May 1953) is a film-maker from Mozambique, and has participated in hundreds of cinematographic productions, variously as producer, director, or first assistant.
[1] Camilo de Sousa was born and educated in the capital of Mozambique, Lourenço Marques (now known as Maputo).
After Mozambique was declared independent in 1975, de Sousa worked on several social and communication projects in the Province of Cabo Delgado, creating the first Mozambican network of information correspondents and moving a mobile cinema around all districts and localities of this province.
He appears in this capacity in Margarida Cardoso's 2003 history of the institute, Kuxa Kanema: The Birth of Cinema, alongside his long-time friends and collaborators Isabel Noronha and Licínio Azevedo.
In 2003, de Sousa was a founding member and vice-president of the Mozambican filmmakers association.
