L'histoire de quelques jeunes gens qui refusent la résignation et qui ne se sentent bien nulle part. Ils ne baissent jamais les bras, sont toujours en quête.

Ils n'acceptent pas la place qu'on leur a imposée avant même qu'ils aient eu la possibilité de choisir quoi que ce soit. Ce sont des survivants. Le monde préférerait surement qu'ils n'existent pas, mais ils existent...

On arriving back (late) at his base, Daniel is oblivious to the imminent coup. Captain Salgueiro Maia arrests the base commander at gunpoint and orders the soldiers to assemble on parade in the middle of the night; he asks them to come with him to Lisbon to overthrow the government.

Dans un asile d'aliénés, loin de la Divine Comédie de Dante, des personnes se croisent, hallucinées ou lucides, rejouant des textes littéraires ou philosophiques. Certains se prennent pour des figures bibliques, Adam et Ève, Jésus, Lazare, Marie, d'autres pour des personnages de romans, Raskolnikov, Ivan Karamazov, ou encore Frédéric Nietzsche... Oliveira développe là une réflexion sur le temps présent et ses valeurs.
