2069 ist ein erotisches, aber schicksalhaftes Jahr für Alfredo, Portugals König ohne Krone. Auf seinem Sterbebett weckt ein altes Volkslied Erinnerungen an Bäume, den Geruch eines verbrannten Pinienwaldes und an den Moment, als der Wunsch des jungen Prinzen Feuerwehrmann zu werden und sein Land vor den Flammen zu retten, zu einer anderen brennenden Sehnsucht wurde: Alfonso.

It takes a lot of courage to call this film a musical. Throughout, the main character sings once in the woods without music and then dances to music without words in a firehouse. Casting non-dancing firemen who are then supposed to play and dance to the music makes for one hell of a spectacle - perhaps the worst dance performance in cinema history. The whole film is shallow, basically moving nothing forward except the relationship between the firefighters. The flashforward or flashback to the future is not related to the whole film at all, it is a kind of embellishment of the film that doesn't work and makes no dramatic sense. The director of the film, João Pedro Rodrigues, should rather consider becoming an assistant director again...
