Synopsis
Television fiction under the formal guise of a documentary, which appears to have been recorded in 1932, yet with the methods, style and equipment of the year 2011. Thanks to this journey through time, the heroes of one of the most important episodes in history of Catalonia during the 20th century discuss the details of that moment in the first person, while an inquisitive camera allows us to relive the events that took place in Barcelona between 14 and 17 April 1931, the three days that the Catalan Republic was in force. All with the aim of displaying the grandeur and the precarious nature of a half-improvised gesture by Companys, corrected for the sake of sovereignty by Macià, and which degenerated into a shouting quarrel between the two great myths of contemporary Catalan history. It was an audacious feat that overthrew the king and made Catalan self-government possible, for the first time since 1714.
