Revolução (Sem) Sangue

Baseado em factos reais, “Revolução (Sem) Sangue” acompanha as vidas, sonhos e inquietações de quatro jovens nos últimos dias do regime ditatorial. Um golpe de Estado militar derrubou o Governo e a população foi aconselhada a permanecer em casa. No entanto, a ânsia pela liberdade levou-os, junto com a multidão, para as ruas. Com origens e motivações diferentes, o dia 25 de Abril de 1974 trouxe-lhes um destino comum. O dia que mudou o rumo do país ditou também o fim precoce das suas vidas. Esta é a história das suas vidas, uma história onde todos nos podemos rever um pouco na memória de cada um e confirmar que há uma raiz comum nas diferentes gerações.

Inspired by true events, Bloodless Revolution follows the story of five individuals who go on their daily routines. They all dream about liberty, freedom of speech and a chance to get rid of the atrocious Dictatorial Government that ruled Portugal for 40 years. João Arruda is a 20 years old boy, a philosophy student and an activist against the regime, Fernando Giesteira is a 17 years old boy who works at a Night Club in Lisbon, Fernando Reis is a 23 years old soldier who is in Lisbon on vacation, António Lage is a 33 years old man who works as a clerk inside PIDE, the horrible state police who tortures anyone who is against the regime. José Barneto is a 38 years old man, father of 4 young children and also an activist. Their separate lives connect to the horrible true events of the 25th of April 1974 when PIDE shot several gunshots towards a crowd of 200 people who were protesting in front of their headquarters. Some die, and some get injured. But who? This Portuguese Revolution is known today as the Bloodless Revolution of Portugal.
