It's 1975, and the Carnation Revolution brings a renewed spirit of freedom and independence, with the arrival in Portugal of a large number of foreigners. From northern Europe, men and women travel to work side by side with local communities on occupied farms and to transmit different social and sexual models to them. However, the reception will not be so obvious ... What remains, after forty years, of that revolutionary enthusiasm? Invited by the director, the protagonists of that unrepeatable season return to take on the roles of themselves as young people: however, they will not lend themselves to the slavish spectacle of the events that have taken place, conducted on a historically scrupulous script; rather, there will be the possibility for them to experience events a second time - as if it were the first. Time has passed, ideals have changed or fallen, the gaze has become cynical, disillusioned, perhaps mocking. And on the present it casts the long shadow of conquests still to be made.
