Traidores
★ 6 · 2021 · Documentary
When he was just a child, Jon discovered his father's past, Iñaki Viar, linked to ETA. Son, grandson, and great-grandson of Basque nationalists, Iñaki was arrested in 1969 by the political-social brigade and tried alongside Teo Uriarte and Mario Onaindia in the Burgos Trial. Years later, he organized the escape from Segovia and, finally, in 1977, he regained his freedom. Iñaki, like many other prisoners, renounces nationalism and condemns terrorist violence. Jon, a film buff, tries to understand his father's past while living with attacks, kidnappings, and a lot of silence. By then, Iñaki is already considered a "traitor" by the nationalist world.
