Goodbye Barcelona

Synopsis:
Tells the story of Sam, who joins the Brigades and goes to Spain to help fight the fascists in 1936, and Rebecca, his mother, who follows him there.We follow their journey as they fight for freedom alongside the people of Spain. Goodbye Barcelona is about the incredible things people can do when they feel compelled to act, and when they can no longer bear to just watch while other peoples lives are being destroyed. It is inspired by the Brigadistas, the men and women from around the world, who volunteered to help fight against Fascism in the Spanish Civil War.
