Luta de libertação para uns, guerra da África para outros: o conflito que, entre 1963 e 1974, opôs o PAIGC às tropas portuguesas é visto sempre em perspectivas diferentes por guineenses e portugueses. Mais curioso é que, apesar do conflito, houve sempre cumplicidade: 'Não fazemos a guerra contra o povo português, mas contra o colonialismo', disse Amílcar Cabral, e a verdade é que muitos portugueses estavam do lado do PAIGC. Não por acaso, foi na Guiné que cresceu o Movimento dos Capitães que levaria ao 25 de Abril em Portugal.

On the night of April 26, 1974, the prison doors of Caxias opened and the political prisoners were released. Two women: Diana Andringa and Maria José Campos relive their detention in Caxias in this film. Even though they did not suffer the torture and other forms of violence that most of their companions were subjected to, both speak with great emotion of isolation and the so-called “normal regime” period in which they shared the space of a cell with other prisoners and learned to live in prison.
