Synopsis: The show takes place in a newsroom, where a group of journalists is working on an article about Fado and Democracy. As they explore the work of Ary dos Santos and other authors relevant to the April 25 Revolution, the night turns into a journey of memories, debates, and celebration. The journalists revisit poems, lyrics, and songs, discussing topics such as politics, fascism, Fado, and cultural heritage.
The narrative evolves from a simple work session into an immersive experience, where music and poetry come to life. The show culminates with a reenactment of the early morning of April 25, symbolizing the dawn of freedom in Portugal.
