On All Saints’ Day, the Spanish pay tribute to their dead: a day of reverence and remembrance. Nevertheless, beneath the serene surface lie unhealed grief, thundering silence and ever-burning political conflicts. In the southern Spanish village of Frigiliana, time has not healed the wounds from the Franco era. Even now the murder of a villager in 1952 divides the community.

The Death of Antonio Sanchez Lomas

Ezequiel is serving a six-year prison sentence. So, what crime did this Cuban farmer commit? Answer: He sold his own cow. Filmmaker Salvador Gieling, a cousin by marriage, just can’t get his head around it. And if he can’t understand it, how can he explain it to his two-year-old son Luca? So Gieling and his family make the journey to the village of Sibanicú, where, camera on his shoulder, he tries to figure out what happened to Luca’s uncle.
