In the Portuguese parliament, between the deputies' benches and the tribune with members of the government, there is a desk with nothing around it where two officials work to transcribe everything that is said. Their fingers record the speeches, interventions, asides, insubordinations and even gestures. There are hundreds of thousands of pages recording debates, constituent assemblies, votes, advances and setbacks in social, labour and human rights. "Guide to a possible country" is a show created from these records to tell the story of the last fifty years of our democracy.
