Images and sounds expose the duality of Portugal during the days of WW2: a peaceful, god-loving, rural country, providing an escape route for over one hundred thousand European refugees to the Americas; and a political and cultural elite that disguised their Nazi inclinations just enough to play its neutral role in international politics.
Lusitanian Illusion was directed by João Canijo.
Lusitanian Illusion runs for 1h 5min, and was released in 2010.
