A rigorous activist film that recounts and then deconstructs Portugal’s system of large landowners. With a highly pedagogical focus and precise political analysis, José Nascimento evokes the nascent process intended to finally bring justice to the workers of Alentejo’s sunny fields: a radical proposal for agrarian reform with an equitable solution to give back “the land to those who work it”
