April 25 – An old dictatorial regime is overthrown, amidst many flowers and few shots. A man wanders the streets of a Lisbon he barely knows, in an inglorious search for the effervescence of the revolution. A group of friends celebrate April 25th on September 25th. The host, Natal, creatively reconstructs the events in order to emphasize his own involvement in the revolution. A group of African students wage a glorious fight to maintain the occupation of Casa de Macau. Under the shadow of colonial power, the girl Purificação is kidnapped by a powerful man, stripped of her ties and her past, subjected to the desires of a “little king” - the administrator of the municipality, simultaneously president of the chamber, municipal judge, head of the police officer and whatever else you want to be. On stage, events follow each other, violating the sequential chronology, like puzzle pieces of parallel memories, in different time horizons, which converge around carnations and freedom.
