Salgueiro Maia - The Implicated: The Series

On April 25, 1974, a man walked alone in Largo do Carmo. He knocked on the GNR military barracks door and entered, unarmed and without any escorts. Inside, the Government’s chief, Marcelo Caetano, waited, surrounded by the military and the people. The man who stared at him that afternoon and demanded surrender, guaranteeing his safety, had just led Santarém’s Artillery 1 regiment in taking the capital. Without firing a single shot, he managed to overthrow a regime that was over 48 years old. That was the last step to take and he took it, without hesitation, becoming the unavoidable figure of the day that marked the beginning of democracy in Portugal.

New Beginning

Álvaro and Maria do Carmo lived happily in Angola. He was a successful businessman and she was a mild mannered housewife. They have two children together, Ana and João, who were studying and living their teenage years in Luanda... Until the day the civil war broke out and everything fell apart. Amidst declarations of independence, a wave of violence breaks out and the established peace and order fades away. In July, 1975, the Mendonça family, along with over five hundred thousand people, leave their belongings behind and embark on an air convoy that would become the biggest exodus in the history of the Portuguese people to a homeland that most only knew from photos and dubbed it Metropolis. In Lisbon, Joaquim and Natália, Álvaro’s brother-in-law and sister, take the Mendonça family in their small apartment, where they will try to get their lives back in order. However, over that hot summer of 1975, the integration seemed to be far from easy.

Felp

A comedy about difference, identity, and empathy. But with stuffing. And plastic eyes. In a country where plush dolls live as second-class citizens, a community fed up with being left on the shelf decides to organize. Between neighborhood cafes, shady laundromats, and bottled activism, FELP (Spectacular Front for Furry Freedom) is born, a movement that fights for rights as basic as political representation and access to clothes dryers with a "Delicates" setting. In this world where the main crime is being made of fur, there are power struggles, furry intrigue, doll trafficking, and conspiracy theories linking the Templars to Manzarra's success. Throughout the episodes, we will follow the journey of this group of dolls who only wanted to be treated with respect, but end up being tried in court.
