Storyline
The documentary chronicles the week the streets burned, police charged against crowds, and Barcelona experienced the five most chaotic days in its recent history. When the Supreme Court sentenced the 12 pro-independence leaders for sedition, misuse of public funds, and disobedience, the widespread rejection of the verdict sparked a wave of demonstrations, protests, and violent clashes that transformed the streets of Barcelona, and other cities in Catalonia, into a veritable battlefield.
