Floods always trigger the blame game as today in Italy.

Under Portugal’s dictatorship in 1967, censors “froze” the number of victims at 200. Witnesses like Dennis Redmont reported that the real figure was twice as high as it is discovered 50 years later in a tell-all exhibit, held on Saturday the 30th of November 2019 at Vila Franca de Xira, in Portugal.

Apart from a big photo exhibit (some from Life magazine), there have been lots of testimonials with videos and a play.
