Leo, el hijo del doctor republicano espa?ol, inicia un viaje para descifrar los enigmas que han rodeado a su familia a lo largo de d?cadas. Lo hace a partir del descubrimiento de un hecho ins?lito, sucedido un siglo atr?s: la misteriosa desaparici?n de su bisabuelo Rom?n que desencaden? un drama familiar irreversible. Cuatro generaciones sufrir?n las vicisitudes de su tiempo en diferentes escenarios: la Espa?a del final del siglo XIX, Barcelona y Buenos Aires; la II Rep?blica, la Guerra Civil, la II Guerra Mundial y la invasi?n de Francia por las tropas de Hitler. A ello seguir? un nuevo ?xodo a la Argentina, esta vez la de Per?n y Evita, y despu?s el retorno a la Espa?a franquista. Un relato profundamente humano de seres atrapados en tiempos convulsos, que narra las emociones que inspira el desarraigo. Un homenaje a las lealtades, la amistad y el amor. Una memoria reivindicativa de la emigraci?n y el exilio que arrastr? a decenas de millones de europeos a Am?rica del Sur. Una historia viva de todos nosotros. Leo, the son of the Spanish republican doctor, begins a journey to decipher the enigmas that have surrounded his family throughout decades. He does so based on the discovery of an unusual event, which happened a century ago: the mysterious disappearance of his great-grandfather Rom?n that triggered an irreversible family drama. Four generations will suffer the vicissitudes of their time in different settings: Spain at the end of the 19th century, Barcelona and Buenos Aires; the Second Republic, the Civil War, the Second World War and the invasion of France by Hitler's troops. This will be followed by a new exodus to Argentina, this time that of Per?n and Evita, and then the return to Franco's Spain. A deeply human account of beings trapped in troubled times, which recounts the emotions that uprooting inspires. A tribute to loyalties, friendship and love. A vindictive memory of emigration and exile that dragged tens of millions of Europeans to South America. A living history of all of us.
