From the beginning of the Spanish Civil War, Madrid is besieged and the bombardments soon become a distressing and deadly routine for the people. And a danger to the artistic heritage. Incendiary shells hit the Prado Museum. They fail to burn, but a decision was taken. The Republic commissioned the young and impetuous Josep Renau, a poster artist and activist, and Timoteo Pérez, a shy painter, to organise the transfer of the works to keep them away from destruction, following the government under attack. In November 1936 begins a dizzying three-year journey through a broken country.
