2024 · ★ 7.5 · Documentary, History

At the turn of the 1970s, with Portugal having been ruled for nearly half a century by an uncompromising dictatorship, a handful of officers decided to risk everything to liberate their country. Working in the shadows of the regime, they plotted a coup d'état unprecedented in history. This coup would soon give rise to a revolution: the Carnation Revolution, which overthrew the Salazar regime in a single day, April 25, 1974, without bloodshed.

MovieDocumentaryHistory
Portugal managed to get through all of World War II without firing a single shot. Caught in a vise between the Axis and the Allies, Antonio Salazar, the country’s strongman, used every trick in the book to get his country through unscathed. In this war of nerves in which anything went, the Portuguese dictator took brilliant advantage of the only weapon available to maintain his country’s independence: neutrality.
