Synopsis
In Portugal, late in the night of April 24 to 25, 1974, the radio broadcasts an outlawed song: "Grandola". It could have been just an act of insubordination by a rebellious journalist. It was in fact the preplanned signal triggering the military coup which was to change the face of this little country, and the destiny of vast territories in Africa.
