The newfound freedom is deceptive for Lucia, who is released from prison in early 19th century Spain after a long sentence, along with her native son. For instead of the peace they have long longed for, they find themselves, pursued by the local governor, in the midst of clashes between two bandit clans fighting over trade routes that were all-important in the days of abject poverty.
A sort of Spanish Western, set shortly after the French Revolution, lies behind this production by Spanish SVOD giant Movistar Plus, which deals with a dark and largely unknown chapter of Spanish history. A time of great social tension and extreme poverty, where supposed freedom fighters run a regime as brutal as the institutions they fight. Conceived and realized by the same team that already caused a sensation in this country with the Spanish mafia thriller "Gigantes"
