- Until his death in 1975, Francisco Franco ruled Spain with an iron hand. How do Spanish people from Andalusia deal with the dark past? Have Spanish people processed the dark past already or is Franco still alive in the people´s mind? Has the past left its traces in the region of Andalusia?
A year ago, Stef and his family still lived in Nicaragua, in a quiet area of the pleasant village of Masaya. But his street turned into a war zone when the country went into a deep crisis and President Daniel Ortega cracked down the protests. Stef searched for a place to stay and ended up with his wife and children in Andalusia. To find his way and get to know this part of Spain better, in this six-part series he writes letters to the inhabitants. Stef discovers Andalusia on the basis of those letters, but parallel to this story you follow his personal situation, which of course is strongly influenced by the crisis in Nicaragua.
On November 20, 1975 dictator Franco died. This is a very important date in Spain. The dark past does not seem to have been processed yet, because much of what happened was kept silent for years. The stories that Stef picks up remind him a lot of the dictatorship in Nicaragua. The repression, the division it evokes. Because when it comes to Franco, the whole of Spain seems to be messed up again.

Muy buen documental. Haz uno de la herencia musulmana en Andalusía. Great documentary. Please do one on the Islamic Heritage in Andalusía.
No
Franco compared to what?
Communists?
What the world is facing now?
you are attempting (and failing) to justify murder and abduction of babies by complaining that other bad things also happen. How about Franco compared to no murder and no abduction of babies? They called homosexuality sinful meanwhile they were comitting evil crimes. Absurd.
me pregunto si Stef sigue en Andalucía.
The legacy of Franco for good or bad is a cross for this supporters to carry to their graves.
I suspect we get very different answers in Catalonia, Asturias, Galacia y otras lugares
andalucia no es representativa de españa
Yeah, and don't forget Basqueland who hate the sob.
10:37 con la foto de Guevara de la Serna detras y no le da verguenza...
La amnesia selectiva de las clases políticas de todos los países del pasado oscuro de cada sociedad... TERRIBLE
Isn't Ortega the Elected leader of Nicaragua?
Yes but he is quickly becoming a dictator and a problem for the rest of Latin America.
Een beetje vreemd te vragen waarom een Spanjaard zijn vlag op zijn balkon hangt.
In USA heeft iedereen zijn vlag binnen en buiten hangen en niemand die hen vraagt waarom.
Als Spanjaard word ik ziek van zulke onzin.
Hebben niet dezelfde recht als Amerikanen om fier te zijn van ons land en vlag?!
Being father is as important as being mother, especially for boys, we have same problem in here turkey and source of problem is same
Arriba España 🇪🇸 viva franco coño
Unfortunately facisim didn't die it migrated in the condor dictatorships of South America
De una, loco.
The correct writing is Andalucia, with c, not s
