The film is about the true story of Aranzazu Berradre Marín. This was the false identity a policewoman assumed to infiltrate the ETA (Euskadi ta Askatasuna) for eight years. Just twenty when she managed to get inside one of the organization’s groups, she had to cut off all ties to her family for the duration, in order to dismantle the Donestì command (San Sebastián) just when the gang was calling for a false truce, called the ‘truce trap’. The film is thus a story of personal courage: a woman who changed her own life to try to save the lives of others.
