40,四月的上尉 Capitães de Abril (2000)

1974年4月25日淩晨,葡萄牙上尉Salgueiro Maia在兵營中下達集合令:

“Gentlemen, as you all know, there are various forms of state. The welfare states, the capitalist states and the state we are in. Now, in this solemn night, we are going to end this state! So that anyone who wants to come with me, we go to Lisbon and finish it. This is voluntary. Who does not want to leave, stay here!”

然後營內所有軍人自願跟著上尉離開軍營前往60公裏以外的首都裏斯本,並於早上6點到達首都的政府辦公街區。途中軍人們的吉普與裝甲車默默地行進在街道上,即便是車輛稀少的淩晨,他們還是會同民眾的車輛一樣,一起遵守紅燈停綠燈行的交通法規……

這就是電影《四月的上尉 Capitães de Abril》的序幕。

隨著天空見亮,很多平民自發參與“政變”,並將康乃馨插在了軍人們的步槍上,康乃馨革命便由此而來。此革命推翻了20世紀西歐為期最長的獨裁政權(42年)。為紀念此日,葡萄牙把4月25日定為自由日。
