Victor and Vasco, two young Portuguese students in Paris, try to reach Lisbon by chasing the song of the rebels. It is the Carnation Revolution of 1975. The story of a friendship, of an unforgettable road trip: an adventure that many young people experienced in that incredible year.

The "Carnation Revolution" was perhaps the last romantic revolution. A generation of young people could believe they were mirroring it, rekindling their enthusiasm for history. Alla rivoluzione su una due cavalli recounts a fragment of the adventure that so many young people experienced in that year: Victor and Vasco, two young Portuguese students in Paris try to reach Lisbon by chasing the rebels' song, "Grândola, Vila Morena, terra da fraternidade," experiencing adventures along the way in every place and every encounter. A tale in which there is a strong spirit of irony and even at times with a sense of the comic: that revolution was a real revolution of freedom, and that generation that wanted to "bury tyrants with a laugh" really lived up to it.
