Pere Portabella | Spain | 1974-2018 | 54 min.
O.V in Spanish and Catalan subtitled in English and Spanish

March 2, 1974 marked a shocking date in the history of Spain: that day the anarchist militant Salvador Puig Antic was executed by a vile club. That same day Pere Portabella gathered five men who had been political prisoners in a "dinner",  in the most absolute clandestinity, risking his skin just to film them talking about their experiences in prison, the hunger strike and the their struggle. The anti-Franco resistance in a fascinating and exceptional document (both in its content and in its avant-garde form) about the end of the dictatorship and the happenings prior to the Transition.
