"A satirical cartoon of blatant contemporary relevance" about the then president of the ministry, António Maria da Silva, who was head of government six times from June 1920, but whose eagerness to dominate Portuguese politics and be the leading figure in his party, led him to adopt attitudes that alienated popular sympathies. It is considered the first animation in Portuguese cinema.
