Overview
At the beginning of World War II, a mineral became necessary for the German state: wolfram. Galicia became “El Dorado” for many people who were looking for easy money and/or work in those hard years of the Spanish postwar. Miners, adventurers, guerrillas, civil guards, political prisoners, etc., lived together in the Galician mountains and intertwined their lives. This is the story of those people told by themselves.
