Audience Member One of the most gripping and courageous documentaries done. Filmed on the night of the execution of militant anarchist Salvador Puig Antich by Francisco Franco's regime. It evolves around a microcosms of political ideals and experiences of incarceration having as a gathering point a soup dinner which allows the libertarians to express themselves with more familiarity instead of just delivering their political stances. The film's production was coordinated in secrecy, with notices of the secret shooting location sent to technicians and participants at staggered times. Sound is a bit rough but the point gets across very clearly. A must see for political buffs. Rated 4.5 out of 5 stars 02/27/23 Full Review Read all reviews
