In the 1960s, some two million Spaniards left their homeland to go to work in European factories. Focusing on the journey of Josefina who left Spain at age eighteen to work in Nuremberg, Germany, this sensitive and thought-provoking documentary artfully weaves interviews and extraordinary historical footage to reveal a hidden part of European history.
