| Summary |
An ideological battleground. A prelude to World War II. An internal struggle best left alone by the free powers of the West. These are three common non-Spanish views of the Spanish Civil War. But they are not the views of the nearly one million men, women, and children who were forced to flee their beloved homeland to save their own lives. This is part one of their story: the story of the exiles. 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. |
