Los restos del ejército republicano cruzan la frontera francesa. Entre los exiliados Lluis Companys, presidente de la Generalitat catalana y Aguirre, presidente de Euskadi. Con la invasión de Francia por las tropas alemanas, termina violentamente el exilio de Companys. La Gestapo lo entrega, no respetando su carácter de refugiado político al gobierno de Franco. Conducido por el Conde de Mayalde es trasladado a Madrid y posteriormente a Barcelona. De las torturas políticas se pasa al ¿simulacro? de juicio y el Presidente es condenado a muerte. Con el fusilamiento, motivado por el odio y no por razones de seguridad, se trataba de cerrar un proceso de democratización y libertad que había adquirido sus expresiones más clarividentes en Cataluña.

Four different Alices wander through mazes constructed from 40 years of Spanish history in this post-Franco meditation.

Told in a somewhat confusing manner, especially for those unfamiliar with the nuances of Spain's history in the period between 1936 and 1975, this is director Jorge Feliu's first feature film.
