With the presence of the author Stéphane Fernandez
At 86 years old, Ángel revisited the roads traveled between France and Spain during his long career as an anti-Franco anarchist militant. As a road-movie, full of emotions, reunions and memories, Angel returns to the scenes of his childhood, youth and middle age. The Barcelona of 1937 where, as a child, he lost his mother in a bombing, his border crossing at only 10 years old, only with his 6 and 4 year old brothers. Rediscovered with their father in Argelès, interned in the Dordogne in a children's colony ...
As a young man he becomes an active anarchist militant who will make incursions against the dictatorship, all on the Aragonese side where he will finally be arrested. Tortured, sentenced to death, he will spend 16 years in Franco's jails with the commuted sentence.
