After the Carnation Revolution, a clandestine group of the extreme right sets off bombs across Portugal. We learn about it not from the men who run it but from the four women who share their lives, each speaking for herself. Pushed to the edges of the action, they keep a close eye on one another, weighing who is respected and who is slighted, and slowly the ties between them begin to change.
