The story
Elderly David Carr has died of a heart attack and his granddaughter discovers old letters, newspapers and other documents in his room: what we see in the film is what he had lived.
Carr, a young unemployed worker and member of the Communist Party, leaves Liverpool and travels to Spain to join the International Brigades.
He crosses the Spanish border in Catalonia and coincidentally ends up enlisted in a POUM militia commanded by Vidal, on the Aragon front.
