The film called "April Captains" tells an important story of the

Carnation Revolution. Even though the genre of this film is historical
drama, it was full of romantic scenes that made the story even more
interesting and personal. And the actors who played the characters
did a great job too. This is why I liked watching this authentic film.

Before watching the movie, I've

done a research about the Carnation
Revolution. Just to know the
historical context better.
To be honest, film actually not only
was accurate, but has set me in the
mood so well, that after watching it
I felt like I've actually been there,
empathizing was so easy to do.

Before watching the movie I didn‘t

know anything about Carnation
Revolution. "April Captains"
interested me to learn more about
Portuguese history. This movie
evoked feelings, reminded how
important freedom is. It also has
been relatable because of similar
events in Lithuania.

The film "April Captains" is a film depicting the Portuguese Carnation

Revolution. The film reminded me of Lithuanian historical movies in
the way it was filmed and shown to the viewers. The most
impressionable thing about the movie and the Revolution was the
peacefulness in achieving the Revolution's goals. It expressed the
people's dedication and want to have a better, more democratical
country as well as the want to stop
the army's cruelty towards others. -
