Women of the Revolution (2026)

Women of the Revolution is a film that celebrates the multitude of revolutionary women: the mothers of our democracy. Through the voice, gaze, silence, and actions of each of these women, we learn about the richness of their experiences, which together give us a legacy of trust, justice, perseverance, respect, and freedom. These are women who defeated fascism, colonialism, and social inequalities in Portugal and the occupied African territories and transformed the world around them.
