This film has just been released in Spain, it won the International Jury award in the Moscow XXI film festival. It is the story of a young Museo del Prado - a CNT guard who saves an takes home an important painting - saving it from the bombing, and the relationship with his Grandfather--a pure anarchist (the actor playing this role is actually a 250 "Blue" division veteran). There are some action scenes (mostly trench combat) and a very good war atmosphere with very good captions on the 'metro refuges' and the siege. The Director Antonio Mercero is well known for his TV work.
