This shocking film concerns a group of 13 female Republican sympathizers who following the defeat of their side by General Franco are tracked down, arrested and imprisoned.  Filmed in 2007 as Spanish culture has gradually turned the spotlight more on the occurences of the civil war, the film shows to what extent the female prisoners were tortured.

Based on a true story, the film leaves us in no doubt about the nature of the Franco régime.  Now most of those involved in persecution at the time are dead it has become possible to lift the lid of this most intolerant and cruel of times.
