Director: Susana de Sousa Dias
48 takes its name from the number of years that Portugal spent under dictatorship before the Carnation Revolution of 1974. Its source is a police photograph album from that time, filled with mugshots of political prisoners. Filmmaker Susana de Sousa Dias tracked down the people depicted in these photographs, and recorded their stories. The result is a moving and timely account of oppression and resistance.
