Documentary on the life and work of Cádiz poet Carlos Edmundo de Ory (Cádiz, 1923–Thézy-Glimond, 2010) on the centenary of his birth. An author who revolutionized poetry by creating the postist movement and popularizing witty aphorisms that he called "aerolitos" (meteorites).
During the Spanish Civil War (1936-1939) and the Second World War (1939-1945), around three thousand people managed to elude their pursuers, and probably also avoided being killed, thanks to the heroic and very efficient efforts of the Ponzán Team, a brave group of people — mountain guides, forgers, safe house keepers and many others —, led by Francisco Ponzán Vidal, who managed to save their lives, both on one side and the other of the border between Spain and France.
On January 8th, 1933, a general strike was declared throughout Spain. The strike was quickly quelled, except in Casas Viejas, a small village in Cádiz. During the repression, the security forces of the Second Republic murdered in cold blood twenty-two peasants, including women and children.
Documentary about Elena Huelva, a young woman who took social media by storm by sharing her battle with cancer. With her smile and her motto, "My desire wins," Elena won the hearts of all of Spain and celebrities such as Aitana and Manuel Carrasco. An activist, influencer, and writer, this film is a tribute to her legacy.
