How has Portugal's economy evolved since the 25 April 1974 Revolution? This documentary traces the country's economic transformation over the past five decades, from a largely protected and underdeveloped economy to a modern member of the European Union. It explores the impact of industrialisation, European integration, infrastructure investment, and rising living standards, while also examining persistent challenges such as low productivity, regional inequalities, housing affordability, and economic vulnerability. Through the perspectives of economists, historians, journalists, and business leaders, the film reflects on Portugal's economic achievements and the reforms needed to ensure sustainable growth in the future.
