A walk for half a century, yes, a letter perhaps. Travels in my life, I could call it, which I like Garrett so much. A traveling as he would like, a loose story, memories, projects, meetings. Also because, since 1995, I have done several portraits of artists (Palolo, Bravo, Lapa, Skapinakis, Bartolomeu, Angelo, Sena, Ana Vieira and I prepare Sofia Areal and Fernando Lemos), I started to think that this is my life, these meetings , see, hear, cut, show, tease. I want, with this film continue to show what I see. [Jorge Silva Melo]

27 сентября 1810 года французские войска под командованием маршала Андре Массены, двигавшиеся к Лиссабону, неожиданно обнаружили перед собой огромную англо-португальскую армию. Маленькая нищая Португалия не желала покоряться Наполеону и французская армия потерпела поражение под Серра-ду-Бусаку. Несмотря на победу, англо-португальская армия была вынуждена отступить к укрепленной линии Торрес — Ведраса, которая была построена поперек гористого полуострова между рекой Тахо и морским побережьем для прикрытия Лиссабона. В этом месте собирается множество людей из разных социальных слоев — солдат и гражданских, мужчин, женщин и детей, молодых и старых. Преследуемые французской армией, беглецы двигаются вперед, стиснув зубы, чтобы спасти свою жизнь. Все они — молодой лейтенант Педро де Аленкар, Кларисса, мстительный сержант Франциско Хавьер или проститутка Мартирио, — все приходят разными путями к линиям Веллингтона, где финальная битва решит судьбу каждого из них…
