The Train of Salt and Sugar (Portuguese: Comboio de Sal e Açúcar) is a 2016 internationally co-produced adventure film written and directed by Licínio Azevedo.

[11] In the midst of civil war, a train with passengers and goods must travel 500 miles through guerrilla-held territory to Malawi.

Officer Salomão attempts to coerce Rosa, riding to her first job as a nurse, into cooking for him and expresses intent to rape her, but Lieutenant Taiar intervenes.

Left to get a shawl, Rosa witnesses the soldiers execute an alleged spy dressed in civilian clothing.

Additionally displaying their brutality, Salomão has Bayonet beat a man for requesting his wife be returned to care for her family after he raped her.

Departing at 6 A.M. the next morning, Seven Ways reports the train had a 50-man escort, one anti-aircraft gun, two locomotives, one water tank, and one cargo container.

Taiar radios to Seven Ways, who scouts ahead and estimates kilometers of ruined tracks and that the guerrilla encampment holds 100 men, five bazookas, and two 60mm mortars and one 80mm.

Jealous when seeing Rosa with chicken gifted by Taiar, Salomão promises to make her his woman by the end of the trip.
