Synopsis

The story is set around the British-owned mines of Andalusia’s Rio Tinto in 1888 and depicts the friendship of two women, one Spanish and the other British, against the social upheavals of the time. The tale is based on the true story of the arrival of Cuban anarchist Maximiliano Tornet, which resulted in a strike - the first ecological demonstration in history - and a massacre.
