- On April 1938 the President of The Spanish Republic, Manuel Azaña, ordered the mobilization of thousands of young boys between 17 and 18 years old to join in the fight against Franco's troops in what would be the key battle in the Spanish Civil War: Battle of Ebro. These kids, known as "Quinta del Biberón" because of their short age, will be forced to leave their innocence behind, amidst the sound of bullets. The fate of all of them will be unforeseeable.

- He was an icon for a generation of freedom fighters, frequently risking his life for his dream of universal social justice. But his final battle would be for the right to a dignified death. As a key figure in the Spanish resistance, Miguel Núñez paid a heavy price for confronting the Franco regime. He was repeatedly tortured, spent 14 years in prison and was sentenced to be executed. After his death sentence was commuted and he was finally released, Nuñez took on the dictatorships of Central America, fighting with the Sandinistas in Nicaragua and working with, amongst others, President Evo Morales. But when diagnosed with a serious illness, Nuñez chose to turn his death into an act of affirmation. Under pressure from the Church and the far right, doctors in Madrid are now reluctant to administer palliative care. Many patients have died in agony. Declaring that "if there is no freedom to die, there is no freedom to live", Nuñez became a passionate advocate for patients' rights.
