On October 12, 1972, during a student meeting at the former Higher Institute of Economic and Financial Sciences, a PIDE/DGS agent shot two students. One of them, José Ribeiro Santos, died soon after at Santa Maria Hospital. His death sparked massive protests, and his funeral became a symbol of resistance against the dictatorship. More than a year before the April 25 Revolution, students declared, “That day, we lost our fear.” Diana Andringa’s documentary revisits this event through testimonies and reflections on its lasting impact on a generation and on Portuguese society.
