"Fifty years after the death of Franco, the film has contributed to a groundswell of calls for the interned women to be formally recognised under the law as victims of Spain's dictatorship. Spain's Minister for Democratic Memory, Ángel Víctor Torres, said his government was open to looking at the case of the Patronato survivors."

This is a sobering story, but I love that Spain has a Minister for Democratic Memory.

Marina's mother was held against her will in a convent in 1960s Spain under Franco's regime.
