The legal and political story of José Diogo, a peasant from Alentejo, who on 3 September 1974 murdered his boss, a violent, fascist landowner who had inflicted years of persecution and aggression on him. Does class justice exist? Is there justice for the proletariat? Why did this revolutionary trial fail to change the judicial machine inherited from Salazar’s dictatorship?
