    Plot
    The plot tracks the story of Catalan teacher Antoni Benaiges, despatched in 1935 to a small village in the province of Burgos (introducing innovative and inspiring teaching methods from France among the children before being murdered by Falangists during the Civil War), as well as the present-day story of Ariadna, searching for her great-grandfather, who disappeared during the War.
