(MAN) Atheism casts back to the people.

Seasonal.

Israel.

Than? That is the mirror.

The Jews threw themselves 2000 years without country.

We carry 500.

We are the Israel of Europe.

And the name?

"Ata", that is, "duck".

How are you...

"Ita" ... Yes.

... sounds a lot like IRA. They will think that we copied to the Irish.

Hey...

(Music by Vicente Ortiz Gimeno)

(Horn)

Don't even move.

It can...? -Shut!

Shut!

Still. Look at me.

Let's go!

Hey!

(GIME)

(Indistinct voices)

(Horn and barking)

"He has a concussion. He doesn't remember anything. "

He is believed to be 15 years old and that he is in a college of priests.

Damn!

The doctor told me that he was unconscious for over an hour.

Sometimes happens. And the Police?

He was questioning him.

But is that Ander says that he is a very believer

and he just wants to talk with father Iñaki.

See what happens for robbing banks?

He was just a debt collector. -I do not care.

We have Ander in a hospital

and the police are going to blow him up to hosts until you remember.

The dictatorship ends with money.

If they don't give it to us, you have to take it.

You start robbing a bank and you end up taking El Pardo by yourself.

I mean, we better not do anything.

Txabi, Txiki,

leave us alone.

(Door opening)

Why? What's the problem?

I prefer that we speak it.

(Barking)

Because I am a woman?

We authorize the collector because You said there was no risk.

Risk free, the dictatorship will last 100 years.

-Euskadi is not Algeria. -And what do we do?

Strikes, workers' struggle.

Franco is descojona with the workers' struggle.

The one that is organized in the factory de Bands is going to stop Euskadi.

The company sent the Police to lower wages to workers.

We must be there. And turn ETA into a union?

How long have you been in this, a year?

A year ago, we threw firecrackers.

José Antonio brainwashes you.

My brother just wants me to Basques know who we are.

And, if that involves doing things that nobody dares to do, I support it.

While Erreka and I continue in front,

ETA will not carry out an armed struggle.

People will be demotivated. -That people?

We, the Basques.

This is not about Basques against Spaniards,

but of exploited against fascists, do you understand?

(Squawking)

You don't listen to me, Txabi.

Than?

I have asked you if you filled out the papers.

What papers?

Those of the postgraduate, Oxford. Oh

What do you have in mind? I sent them,

but it doesn't mean they choose me.

There will be 1000 candidates.

What if they choose you?

Well, you come with me.

We should get married.

Are you asking me for marriage? Really?

Do not be silly.

I would love to. Marry me? I already know it.

No, go to England.

And haven't you thought about France? No. I prefer England.

What if I stay?

You know they are going to give you the scholarship.

I'm not asking you that.

Why would you want to stay?

Txabi, you don't hit here.

The Contafac Factor R model

is made in Spain by Telesincro

and designed by people from here.

It has a RAM of 128, which is not much,

and a board system with integrated circuits

not very sophisticated, but it works fine.

(BOY) Down with the dictatorship! - Assassins!

-And the Police! -Hey!

They have hung a tarp. -Really?

-Let's see. -Let's go outside.

-What happens? -Go Go!

-They've hung a tarp. -Run, come on.

-There is a tarp out there. -Come on.

-Run Run. -Outside.

-Let's go.

-Look at her, upstairs.

-Where? - Down with the dictatorship!

-They are there, run.

- Down with the dictatorship!

-Run Run. -Look.

-Behold. (BOTH) Down with the dictatorship!

(Indistinct voices)

Down with the dictatorship! -That!

Down with the dictatorship! -Assassin!

(Outraged voices)

Everyone out! -Get them all out!

-Come on, everybody!

-Come on! - Get out, get out of here!

(Outraged voices)

- Assassins! - Down with the dictatorship!

Down with the dictatorship! - Assassins!

-Outside! -Killer police!

(Outraged voices)

-Let's go!

I said it was everyone!

-Come on, cunt, come on!

Go Go!

Murderous police!

-Let's go!

-Go Go!

Murderous police!

-Run! -Watch out!

(Screams)

(MOTHER) Do you hear me? You don't get in trouble.

In college, there is always trouble.

Thank God. -Thanks to god that?

That someone does something.

That only works to ruin your life.

Because what you say, for my crutches or what?

You don't care about your brother.

Why does Jose say that?

Because it's silly.

They tried to run away down the stairs, but the police blocked them.

Normal, if you have no fucking idea.

They seem to like it get hit.

Do you know what I would have done? Than?

Skip.

Skip? And jump where?

Down. You would have killed yourself.

Or not. Or if.

Do you remember the vietnamese monk that burned two years ago?

It was in the newspapers. Yes. What about him?

Since then,

the world began to wonder what was going on in Saigon.

Already.

Maxi has already told me your discussion with Michel and Erreka.

They just have no idea. Already.

They have no fucking idea.

And what would you do, Txabi?

Hey? What would you do if you were in his place

Me...

I am nobody I do not have a pedigree.

You're my brother.

Well, that, brother. Well brother.

The little brother. Txabi, listen to me.

Why don't you speak English?

He doesn't even live here. No, he lives on the other side,

but I contact him and he helps you to get it.

Get what?

Pedigree

Txabi, the English it has many flaws,

but he is a brilliant guy.

"And since Michel and Erreka they control ETA,

they have ignored it and they have accused him of racist

for prioritizing Basque sentiment

and being a bourgeois without class consciousness. "

"But he is clear about the type of struggle that must be done ...

and he will be delighted to know that there are people ...

who wants to change things from inside".

(Music by Vivaldi)

(Door opening)

(Throaty)

Than? How is Pata Chicle?

Who? Jose Antonio.

You don't look anything like your brother.

The Strike Factory Strike it's stupid.

They won't get anything.

Franco will command the grays, will fill the prisons with people

and everything will remain the same.

I think the same and José Antonio too.

And many more people do not share what Michel and Erreka do,

much more people. And where are those people?

Waiting for someone give them a voice.

If we want to change things, an assembly will have to be called.

But for that, you have to get a majority.

Do you know how to get a majority?

Explaining what we want to do.

First, you have to convince them of what we are.

We are not trade unionists. Not Spanish.

We are Basque anti-fascists. We defend the right

to an older nation than Spain.

We defend the right to a language, to a culture,

to an identity.

That must be transmitted to them.

That's a feeling not an ideology.

Ideologies come and go. The feelings remain.

The identity remains.

If we want to take away the power Michel and Erreka,

we must find people willing to give everything,

to give up everything,

Beginning with you.

Are you willing

But what is everything?

Everything is everything that others they can have:

a life.

I am not afraid work for the Basque Country.

If you get that majority,

English will go to Bilbao and take over.

So, yes, we will make war.

If you had to choose a nickname, what would?

A nickname? Yes, a nickname, a name of war.

Which one would you like? Simple one.

Pepe.

Pepe is fine.

It's because of my brother.

(WOMAN, TV) "That you, who are queen,

you survive your glory so miserable as I survive ...

and you see another woman in possession

of your right as you of mine,

ceasing to have been wife, mother,

and Queen of England. "

"Hastings, Rivers,

that you were present when my son

he was pierced with daggers,

I pray to God that you don't live your natural term,

but finish ... " Hi.

"...in the bed...". -Where were you?

I fell behind in college. Why?

For some papers to ...

For management from the Oxford scholarship.

- "... I was not going to forget about you ...," What are you watching?

"... worm of consciousness".

"Ricardo III". Jose María Prada.

"He has suffered too much."

"I'm sorry for the part that touched me."

More than a king looks like a road pawn.

- (LAUGHS)

What will you know!

I have left you baby squid in the kitchen.

Baby squids?

- "... and you have traitors for friends".

"May the dream never seal your evil eyes ...

if not for the horrifying nightmare scares you ... ".

"Abortion, shame from your mother's womb,

hated spawn of your father,

rag of honor. "

Do you remember something today?

Doctors say what to expect,

but if you want we can squeeze you.

What's the name of the priest who talks about so much?

Iñaki.

Iñaki. Father Iñaki.

Have you investigated him?

Very close friend of the PNV.

(GIME)

PNV.

And if the company assumes that can lower our salary

and increase work without anything happening,

Who will stop their feet?

(All of us! -Exact.

-Yes! -Because the company ...

wants more production

and more production ... -Yes!

... and more production. -Sure!

But, but, in addition, wants wages to drop,

And more and more and more. (ALL SCREAM)

(Horn)

And what are we going to tell them?

(Outraged voices)

We are going to say no! (Not all!

Of course!

We are before a company authoritarian.

See you. -In the Bands factory,

let's say no

(Outraged voices)

How is everything? -Hot.

In the end, the strike goes ahead.

Tomorrow the committee meets of the company. This does not stop it.

(Applause)

Txabi was on the other side. -Than?

Txabi went to Saint Jean de Luz to see English.

-So it happens!

(EVERYBODY) Strike, strike, strike, strike!

(ALL) Strike, strike! -To the strike!

English is a sectarian.

But he is one of the founders.

And you have contacts outside. Exact.

In Algeria, Belgium and America.

The contacts for what? What's the plan?

Convene an assembly to change things.

That is ambiguous. -Give war, Maxi.

Define war.

-Do what Michel and Erreka

refuse to do. Exact.

I mean, armed struggle.

It is a possibility, yes.

You have always agreed.

If we don't get support Enough, they are going to expel us.

We will get the supports. I am convinced.

You control the priests.

We need a site to get together.

Yes, we speak with Father Iñaki and that's it.

If we promise people this is going to be Algeria,

it will have to be fulfilled.

You realize it, don't you?

Yes. Yes.

"Goodbye."

(Door opening)

(EVERYBODY)

-Thanks, Dad. -Bye.

Bye.

Many people do not like English.

Yes but the important thing is the project.

And Michel and Erreka are very heeling towards the unions.

But what does the English say?

English is on the other side. We are here.

Exact. We decided.

What supports do you have?

Many. -How many?

If you agree in which the assembly is convened,

more people will join us.

But if we all win. Sure.

What do you want me to do?

That I give sermons saying the good what would be a new assembly?

How many have you

It would be the fifth, father.

The only thing we need It is a local.

The spiritual exercise house de Guetaria would be perfect.

Our priority now, companions,

it has to be honesty, dignity and justice.

(ALL) Yes! -Especially,

companionship. We should all go to one.

All in one! Yes or no? (ALL) Everyone!

-Yes or no? All in one! (ALL) Everyone!

-You know how this is arranged? Going on strike.

(ALL) Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike, strike!

(ALL) Strike, strike! -Yes!

Or all or none!

(ALL) Strike, strike, strike!

Maxi brings five others from Paris.

Paul, Chato, Baudouin,

Cork and Tintin.

How are you? Charmed.

"Aupa". We want better wages,

we want better pensions,

but for those who leave to sacrifice for the Basque Country,

for the Basque working people, for you.

Because our mirror, where we have to look at ourselves,

It is not Berlin or Warsaw.

"Our references are others, are Cuba, Algeria ...,

peoples that have risen,

they have sacrificed to recover

the devastating truth of your national identity. "

(Indistinct voices)

-The police!

(Indistinct voices)

Hi.

Txema, Pepe. "Kaixo".

Txema. Maxi.

Txema.

"The pride of Roncesvalles,

from the Guernica tree,

of the blood of our "gudaris"

in the Civil War, for them ..., " Let's go!

"... we must stop putting the other cheek. "

"For them, you have to change things. "

-In training!

(Outraged voices)

-Up the workers' struggle!

-Traitors! -Cowards!

-Out of here! -Strike, strike!

(ALL) All or none! All or none!

All or none!

All or none!

All or none!

All or none!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

Strike, strike, strike!

-Hey, hey, hey, stop!

(Screams of outrage)

-Sons of a bitch!

Cowards!

-Stop it, pussy!

-Outside!

(Music by Vicente Ortiz Gimeno)

(Mermaids)

Down!

Down!

-Come on, walk!

-Quick!

-Walk!

-Come on!

(Siren)

(Lock)

Let's see.

(Phone)

Well, to me, I say one thing, to me the church ...

it gives me peace, a lot of peace.

(Footsteps approaching)

But not only spiritual, huh?

also political,

because notice that when Basques give us up for war,

we become Carlists, non-communists.

(LAUGHS) Me...

I am very Franciscan and I like to be with the weak.

Well go on missions.

To Borneo, to the Amazon, to Africa ...

They are weaker there than here.

Sure, they are more difficult to manipulate.

I do not manipulate.

People are already older.

Well don't see the quantity of subversives who tell me about you.

I have been teaching for 15 years of religion.

Surely, I have been a teacher of subversives

and of legionaries and phalangists. Already.

This from the drawing that have I taught which group you belong to?

I don't know this one, Inspector.

Well, he's out there haranguing to people in workshops

and in bars as an enlightened one.

And I don't like illuminated ones.

Especially, the ones I don't control.

Because your obligation is to control, I guess, right?

And yours, teach the Gospels.

I did not forget it. That's what I do.

Right now

Go with God.

(Phone)

(Phone)

Tell me? "Txabi, it's me, Iñaki".

Don't even think about coming back for the church.

Those of the Social de Guipúzcoa they are after you.

They have a drawing of you.

"It is not a photo, but ... they will end up giving you ".

Then I'll have to hurry up.

"Hurry in what?" In making the revolution.

I am talking to you very seriously Txabi.

You have already seen what happened with the strike.

There is no choice.

Well ... we will have to pray a lot.

Yes, we will have to pray.

(JULIA) Look, the center is more expensive by demand, but there is a neighborhood,

Cowley who has good prices and it's close to the university.

It also depends on the scholarship,

because if they give you ... Julia.

(Boat siren)

We are not going to Oxford.

We will not go? No.

Have you been rejected? Eh no.

And so?

If I get the scholarship, I'm going to go alone.

What ... what are you talking about, Txabi?

I think it's the best.

The best for whom?

I just don't want to make you, Julia waste more time.

In fact, not even I know if I will return from England.

I don't know, it's how I feel now.

And so,

Are you bored with me No, no, it's not that.

Do you like another? No, no, no, it's not that.

It's nothing like that.

Well you have fallen out of love.

It's nothing like that. I want to understand it.

Well, explain what is happening.

Is that all you're going to say?

Julia.

Julia!

Fuck off.

(ERREKA) Txabi.

"Aupa". "Aupa, Txabi".

What happens?

You're wrong.

What am I doing wrong?

Get in the car.

I already told you both

that there were many unhappy people. Both of you.

Do you want to earn them with Sabino Arana?

What the hell are you saying about Sabino Arana? What the hell is this coming from?

Basques first. I have never said that.

What about the Basque working people?

Those of Badajoz do not work in the shipyards?

You don't understand it. This is not about ...

Have you seen your hands?

Look at them.

These hands have not touched a lathe Neither a milling machine nor have they sweated.

Let me.

But you speak of working people.

Michel, accept it, Bandas' strike failed.

It is so.

A state of emergency was decreed and we are worse.

We are not worse than before.

And, if you think that, it is you who does not understand anything.

If you continue with the assembly, you will break ETA in two.

It's already broken, Michel. And how are you going to sew it? To shots?

It is not me who puts the red lines here.

(RADIO) "... among the highlights, Iríbar, Uriarte ... ".

And who told you that? English.

We will see each other in the assembly. Goodbye.

- "... is preparing to launch ...".

Txabi, wait. Let me!

- "The referee is Mr. Medina Iglesias. "

"Aided by the Alonso linemen, Sádaba and Munárriz ".

We get five delegates of advantage

in the best case.

Yes, but I'm not worried about this,

because we summon the assembly

by phone the day before and that's it.

AND?

We decide who we call ... and who do we not call.

That is not very honest, huh?

As Lenin says, "The end justifies the means".

Or if you prefer what Father Iñaki says:

"Everything is legitimate as long as it's not sin. "

You wanted to introduce yourself, right?

Introduce myself? To lead the assembly.

Yes, me, with the crutches and everything ...

What if there were no crutches?

No.

You sent me to the other side to catch pedigree,

not to bring you to English.

You know what's up

That nobody loves English.

And so?

So?

We need a leader.

If we already have it.

Who, Maxi? No.

Maxi thinks the same as me,

that the leader has to be you.

But what you say, men?

Yes. What do you say?

Come listen to me.

You have mobilized people. Yes or no?

And they don't distrust you like English.

Also, you have no past.

Everyone has it.

No, you have no past.

And if I do not want?

Sure you want.

I have my way of thinking

and so many times it will not match yours.

Well, in that hypothetical case,

you will be right

How do you know?

Because you've always been better than me.

Forever.

English is not going to conform.

I've already talked to him.

Help me.

Do you know what I said to him?

I told him you were perfect.

Because you have that, Txabi.

You have what we all aspire to and no one has managed to have.

You will come to the end.

You don't know this. I do know.

Nor does anyone know. I do know.

Do you remember what you told me?

About the monk who set himself on fire in Saigon?

Well that monk did it.

That monk arrived ... Until the last consequences.

(SIGHS)

(Doorbell)

Yes. -Do you have it prepared?

Do you believe? -Yes, well, it is.

But do you have the same ...? -Yes, good.

This is the first part. -Hostias!

-Yes. From a French school?

You speak French.

You are miserable, Txabi! Do you hear

I expect it from your brother because he is selfish,

but not from you.

What are you talking about? About Julia.

You told me today. Listens.

Please. Listen to me, Txabi.

You are not like that.

As well as? Like José Antonio.

Your brother is washing you brain.

I just want Julia Be Happy.

It's the only thing I want.

He has taught me your poems and your letters.

You are crazy about her. So I want you to be happy.

How would i be happy with someone like me?

What you do not understand?

Your brother is using you.

But what are you saying? You understand?

You don't see it, but he wants you to be what he can no longer be.

And then it will tell you that you are a "gudari",

a hero, a fighter ...

But, if you follow that path,

you are a coward, Txabi.

(Phone)

(Phone)

Tell me?

Yes, it is here.

Peru.

Tell me.

(Bell)

(Bell)

OK, bye.

(Chimes)

"Agur".

Confirmed.

They have called Urco and Sebas.

They have been summoned to the parish from Guetaria.

What do we do? -It's a trap.

They have quoted ours To pretend.

Let's introduce ourselves there. -No.

If not, they will say that we are scared.

And, if we go, your decisions will be legitimate.

This assembly is not valid. -And who do we turn to?

It's a trap, Erreka, a fucking trap.

And I tell you who do we turn to.

(Thunder)

(Thunder)

Something happens?

José Antonio says you're leaving ...

To spend a few days to San Sebastián.

I'm going to see some friends.

To see some friends.

Do you remember my neighbor Herminia?

As girls we fought a lot.

Yes, I do remember, "love."

I know, I know, I know that I have told you many times.

When my hair burned ...

and when it broke a window of our house.

Do you know why he did all that?

Out of envy. Out of envy.

His father was ruined and mine was doing well.

I saw how they sold their furniture.

If you want to tell me something ...

I want to ask you what's wrong.

What have I done wrong?

You have done nothing wrong.

Do you know what is the worst What did Herminia do?

Worse than the stones, worse than all?

Swear to myself that I would have a cursed family.

Children say a lot of nonsense.

Already,

but I always remember that.

When your father died and I had to raise you alone ...

or when your brother got sick, something no one understands ...

So i wonder what will be next.

What's next, Txabi?

"Mistress".

(Horn)

(Indistinct voices)

There are those who say that the Basque Country it is an entelechy.

Me...

I attest that it's so real as you can see from that window.

I firmly believe in identity cultural of our town,

in their language, in their tradition.

And that's not a fantasy but a social reality.

(Door opening)

- "Egun on". - "Aupa".

Follow, follow.

Some leaders of our organization

they say we play the game to the clergy.

And I wonder what clergy,

because the most communist is to be with the weak.

Sure. And, if we are gathered today,

It is thanks to that Basque clergy and "abertxale"

who risks as a Spanish priest would not.

(Whispers)

The problem of this organization ...

it's not deciding between clergy or proletariat,

between bourgeois or exploited. The real problem, the real one,

is to decide ...

between fight or surrender,

between bombs or strikes ...,

(Whispers)

... between sacrifice or resignation.

Because, as a poet said, "love of country is not love

to the ground or to the herbs that step on our plants. "

"It is invincible hatred who oppresses her,

is the eternal rancor who attacks her. "

Comrades, it's time

to propose the candidate to lead us.

-Yes. -Yes Yes Yes.

(Throaty) A moment, a moment.

Are you not going to let me talk?

Let's give it ...

a welcome applause to a key piece

of our movement and founder from Euskadi Ta Askatasuna.

After the journey that brings me here, I didn't want to miss this moment.

Do you know why

Because I think this fifth assembly is going to be historic.

-That's.

It already is, it already is.

And it generates a great responsibility to say this,

because for me ETA he is like my son.

You,

independently of the discrepancies that you have,

you are like my children.

This is how I feel.

But the truth is that with the children

You have to be careful...

to whom you deliver them.

No?

And today, comrades, I feel ...

I feel calm, satisfaction,

to think that we can give it to him the ideal person,

the man who will take us where not we have been able to get so far.

(Applause)

(Music by Vicente Ortiz Gimeno)

We make it for the Nazis in the year 44.

If you want it to work to the Basque cause,

it will have to start with you.
