Synopsis

Trois variations autour de la relation entre l’armée et le pouvoir au Portugal au xxe siècle. Otelo Saraiva de Carvalho parle du long chemin qui l’a mené jusqu’au Mouvement des Forces armées – des guerres coloniales au coup d’État du 25 avril 1974 jusqu’à la crise qui a détruit l’unité du mouvement et a mis fin à la révolution en novembre 1975. Un professeur (Eduardo Lourenço) analyse le glissement qui a fait sortir l’armée de son havre « apolitique » pour un engagement révolutionnaire. Comme dans un film policier, un reporter américain (Robert Kramer) tente de mettre la main sur les responsables de l’échec de la révolution des Œillets. Achevé seulement en 1982, Gestos & Fragmentos est l’épitaphe cinématographique de la révolution portugaise, c’est la dernière production d’une des coopératives cinématographiques (Grupo Zero) créées pendant la période, ainsi que le dernier film du Cinema Novo, qui s’est développé dans les années 1960.

Three variations on the theme of the relationship between the military and power in Portugal in the 20th century. Otelo Saraiva de Carvalho talks of the long march that brought him to the movement of the captains – from the colonial war to the coup d’état of April 25, 1974 to the crisis that destroyed the unity of the armed forces and brought on the end of the revolution in November, 1975. A professor (Eduardo Lourenço) analyzes this descent of the military from the “non-political” havens to very revolutionary politics. Like in a detective movie, an American reporter (Robert Kramer) tries to put his finger on the ones guilty for the failure of the April revolution. Finished only in 1982, Gestos & Fragmentos is the film epitaph of the Portuguese revolution, it is the last production from one of the film cooperatives (Grupo Zero) created during the revolutionary period, as well as the last film of the Cinema Novo, which developed in the 1960s.
