Escaping Franco: From Danger into Danger—in Spanish with English Subtitles

This program documents the Spanish Civil War from the point of view of the Spaniards who went into exile as a result of it. Firsthand accounts of that brutal conflict and the cruel realities of life as a refugee are movingly described by a broad cross-section of survivors. Graphic newsreel footage accompanies their stories of destruction at home and escape to other countries: tales of separation, imprisonment, forced labor, and frontline action at the start of World War II, as well as—for some, at least—testimonials to the kindness of strangers. Not available in French-speaking Canada. An RTVE Production. (Spanish with English subtitles, 58 minutes)
