In Portugal, on the night from 24 to 25 April 1974, the radio played a forbidden song: "Grândola". It could be the insubordination of a journalist but in fact it was the starting signal of a military coup d'état that changed the history of this little country and the destiny of vast territories in Africa. To the voice of the poet José Afonso, the revolting troops took the barracks. At three o'clock in the morning, they marched toward Lisbon. Only shortly after the military putsch in Chili, the Portuguese Revolution is characterised by its adventurous and at the same time Pacifist and lyrical nature.
