Barcelona and Catalunya 2017. At just fourteen, Laia's father is thrown in jail for a human rights protest. Weeks before the independence referendum when police cracked down on voters with extraordinary violence.
Laia’s mother is devoted to her father's legal case, and after her best friend betrays her, Laia feels isolated. She turns to her great aunt and realises she’s hiding a secret, and when an unlikely classmate comes into her life, bit by bit her eyes are opened.
Two years pass with Laia’s father and many Catalan politicians in jail. Eventually, they are handed down sentences, longer than some murderers, leading to human rights organisations calling for their release.
Barcelona erupts. Laia is rocked to her core as she witnesses just how far the Spanish police will go to keep its grip on Catalunya. A dangerous path opens up to Laia, which if she takes it, everything she cares about will be threatened.”
