The story of Annie Silva Pais in the new plus podcast

Observador15 September 2026 at 10:51

The Observador launched a new podcast called "plus" that tells the story of Annie Silva Pais. This podcast explores the life of this little-known figure in Portuguese history.

Annie Silva Pais is the daughter of the last director of PIDE, the political police of the Salazarist regime in Portugal. Her story is marked by a dramatic twist: instead of following the family's path, she became involved in the Cuban revolution.

The podcast narration is handled by Bárbara Branco, while the soundtrack was composed by Frankie Chavez, contributing to the narrative atmosphere of the story.

Why this matters

Readers interested in Portuguese and Cuban history now have a new source of information about an underdocumented episode in the relationship between Portugal and Cuba. The podcast joins the growing offering of historical content in audio format in the Portuguese market.
