A documentary about a small touristic village in Algarve, Southern Portugal.
This is a documentary about a way of living in Madeira island in Portugal, after the revolution, after April's 25 in 1974. A unique document for the country and especially for the Madeira island remembering those times of hard living.
The film follows the process of occupation of Quinta da Vargem, in Unhais da Serra, by salaried workers, a process that would lead to the nationalization of the Quinta. Ocupação de Terras na Beira Baixa (Land Occupation in Beira Baixa) is part of a series of films produced by the Cinequanon film cooperative in Unhais da Serra during the period of the Agrarian Reform.
The film documents two phases of an incident occurred in Portugal, during the 1974 revolution. In September 30, 1974, JosĂ© Diogo, a tractor driver, kills his boss, Columbano LĂbano Monteiro, after being dismissed from his job, when he claimed his right to work. He is imprisoned in Beja, Alentejo, and he is freed until prossecution. The courts are reluctant to judge him, because of the social unrest and the political aid Diogo is receiving from trade unions and political parties. A crowd will disrupt the court, in Tomar, and conduct a popular judgement in the hall of the tribunal, deciding to free Diogo, and condemning the boss, posthumously, for dismissing his employee and attacking him. The case became a law case study since then.
In the time of King Leonardo, a war and the plague that accompanied it depopulated Traslândia. Ignoring these tragic events, Queen Isménia, Princess Camila and lady-in-waiting Narcisa, coming from a distant kingdom, arrive in Traslândia, when the war approaches the end.
Maria, a blind girl apparently raped by her stepfather, is held in an isolated and dilapidated hospice, desperately awaiting a miracle by Our Lady of Fátima. Turned over by Angela, her aunt, into the care of Dr. Firmino, an imposing doctor, she will suffer moments of despair, grace, and fear, among beliefs, phantoms, and revelations.
