Ruiz and Sarmiento's film recounts the tale of the Napoleonic invasion of Portugal and the withdrawal of Wellington's Anglo-Portuguese forces to the southern hill country. The general's devastating tactic was to compensate for his army's comparative lack of numbers by luring the French into hostile terrain, fortifying the lines of Bussaco and picking the invaders off as they climbed the slopes.
