This brings tears to my eyes. I was 16 years old at the time. My parents fought for democracy and freedom. My brothers and I knew that what was said at home couldn't be disclosed outside. I remember being 14 years old and thinking, 'This dictatorship suffocates us.' Boys faced going to the colonial war as soon as they turned 18 years old. Most of them were brought from rural areas with no knowledge of the outside world to Angola, Mozambique, Cape Verde, Guinea-Bissau, to fight for a country that gave them and their families no education, no proper living conditions, no work, nothing. They fought against people who were fiercely and rightly fighting for freedom, independence, and a better future, all in the name of a regime that provided none of these things to them. There was so much misery everywhere that we couldn't disregard that our country was dying at the hands of the dictatorship's rulers. I lived through the momentous times that followed the 25th April military coup. The real revolution that took place everywhere, in the cities, in the countryside, in factories, in schools. We eagerly embraced the freedom given to us by the Captains' Movement. We learned how to live in a democracy in just a couple of years, catching up for our decades-old lateness compared to Europe. I dearly miss all my loved ones who lived with me through those times, having spent almost all their lives in oppression and who have already passed away.
Beautiful and important documentary. Provides a comprehensive investigation and context to the Portuguese revolution.
The links between Portugal's Carnation Revolution and the country's wars in its African colonies are very fascinating
Thank you for a very enlightening documentary. . .
The most beautiful day of the year, April 25. Thanks to all that made this day/revolution possible. I was only one year old, so i didn't experience dictatorship (and i hope not to ever experience it). But the revolution has to be made daily, that's why April 25th is always alive .
fight fascism. everywhere.
Now we have economic dictatorship under democracy. Now we can say what we want but the old people have the money and the young go to Switzerland or Luxembourg to have economic freedom. Old people always find a way to prevent young people to have a future...
34:02 I always fear for what tourist guides say in these tours.
Saint Catherine was born in Egypt but never saw nothing proving that she was black.
Specially coming from Alexandria, which is a city created by the Greeks without as much Ancient Egyptian and Nubian influence as other regions.
The term " Black " is not to be understood here as skin colour, but is chosen by people of African or Afro-diasporic origin as a self-designation in contrast to non-white. Black and white are also understood as a social and political construction. Our protagonist's statement refers to the fact that St Catherine was very probably not a clearly white saint as depicted on the Portuguese tiles at the Capela das Almas in Porto.
Translated with DeepL.com (free version)
Cannot agree. The guide talks about whitewashing and states clearly that she was a Black woman, which is altering the Egyptian history and culture.
The same perspective applied in some platforms to Cleopatra.
Would like to highlight however that I thoroughly appreciate the
rest of the documentary very much.

Nothing I could find was written about St Catherine being non white or even that she was white. Not an issue apparently back then in the recorded stories about that saint.
Would like to highlight however that I thoroughly appreciate the rest of the documentary.
My tears are for the African countries that suffered slavery, torture and genocide during Portugal's colonial rule. Most Portugal's colonies were living in situations pretty close to slavery.
No one wants to talk about that. They made Africans suffer for centuries. Maybe this was God giving them a taste of their own medicine. Africans suffered for centuries under the Portuguese. Every man desires freedom.
It does matter, but not very much, whether there is democracy or dictatorship. What matters is honest leadership or a guy whose aim is to serve humanity.
Idiotic statement, No dictator has ever been honest nor aiming to serve humaity. every regime has thousands of victims, the worsening of conditions for the most vulnerable or a scapegoat section of humanity and the dictactor, their families and their cronies plunder the countries resources to enrich themselves. every single one.
democracy, for all its faults at least has checks and balances and those in power have limits to their powers and their terms in office.
Portugal remercie Salazar ! Le plus grand politician de tous les temps.... Un grand merci à lui davoir éviter le totalitarisme voulu par les communistes
Não nos envergonhes pah.
@@paulocorreia7942 Salazar sempre! Comunas nunca mais
@@vlaamstuga Que saudades quando os arredores de Lisboa eram só barracas, que saudades quando a escola era só para as elites e as pessoas eram encentivadas a não estudar(para se manterem burras e não questionarem o regime) que saudades quando não havia segurança social, SNS, que saudades da policia de perseguição. Basta ver imagens antigas de fora de Lisboa, que Portugal era um país mediaval, quando a 2º guerra acabou toda a Europa começou a evoluir, menos Portugal que estava fechado no meio do seu catolicismo fanático e da repressão, mas estava tudo bem, não havia Brasileiros e os Ciganos estavam calados. Salazar nunca, Comunas nunca também, Comunas nunca mais???? Diga lá quando é que tivemos comunas no governo?? Viva a democracia e os moderados. Estes putos do Chega sabem lá o que dizem, seus pseudodenfendores da pátria. Vê lá se vais visitar o teu padrinho á cana, o Mário Machadinha!
@@vlaamstuga Nem Salazar, nem Comunas!
@@paulocorreia7942 ok. Agora estamos de acordo, nem Salazar nem comunas nos dias de hoje, mas historicamente naquele tempo antes Salazar com autoritarismo que comunada com totalitarismo. Gosto de mandar estas bocas porque Salazar não era um " Hitler, Stalin ou mesmo franco como nos querem fazem pensar. Um bom dia!
