Luta Armada (Armed Struggle) continues Hotel Europa's investigation into the recent past, analysing the political projects that resorted to violent actions such as bank robberies, bombings, sabotage, among others, as a form of struggle. The starting point for this project is an extensive collection of testimonies from people who were active in these organisations, as well as research into documents about their actions, creating a multidisciplinary documentary theatre show. This work begins by describing the actions of groups that saw armed struggle as the only way to end fascism and Portuguese colonialism, such as LUAR, Brigadas Revolucionárias and ARA; secondly, the extreme right-wing groups that became known as the bomb network and were active during the PREC period between 1974 and 1975, such as the ELP, MDLP and the Maria da Fonte Movement, which allegedly fought the threat of the establishment of a communist regime in the country, but also the independence movements in the Azores and Madeira, which opted for violent actions, such as the FLA and FLAMA; ending with the last group that began its activity from 1980 onwards, the FP-25, which fought to restore socialism.
