In 1966, 800 workers from the Biscayan company ‘Laminación de Bandas en Frio' held the longest strike of Franco’s dictatorship. At a time of historic upheavals, growing working class organisation and anti-Franco sentiments, hundreds of families from Etxebarri, Basauri and Otxarkoaga began a battle that set an example for the entire labor movement that came after it.

Through the main characters and their stories and experiences, we portray striking images of the 163-day strike which shook foundations of the dictatorship.

The film premiered on EITB2 commemorating the 50th Anniversary of the Bandas Strike.
