AUTUMN 2011 SYNOPSIS
An emotive prison memoir by poet-humanist Marcos Ana that also touches on exile and the fight for freedom and democracy. It tells of his 23 years in prison, and, through the poetry he wrote behind bars, the story of his struggle. Once he was released and installed in France, Ana engaged in the enormous task of setting up CISE, a beacon of Spanish culture. His travels have become a symbol of international solidarity, the fight against Francoism, and the attempt to uphold democracy.
