Blood and Rain

As Spain erupted into Civil War, Gunnar, a young reporter in Iceland, saw an opportunity to become a real journalist.

Barcelona was a city of colourful propaganda posters and interesting characters. Friendships were forged, they laughed, drank and fought together, but he would have to repay his debt. The price of entry into this war was betraying people that had welcomed him.

Nothing would be the same after Barcelona burst into flames, on 3 May 1937. Nobody could be trusted, friends turned on each other and survival was the only thing that mattered.
