Manuela, Cristina and Paca discuss the proliferation of labour law firms in the 1970s and the huge queues of workers that formed in the streets of central Madrid, where they had their own offices. They had a system of equal payment and distribution of profits and defended political prisoners for free. They also relive the ideological polarisation that was felt in the capital with the arrival of the transition and which led to an escalation of violence in the streets in January 1977, with kidnappings by left-wing terrorist groups and murders by the extreme right in peaceful demonstrations. Together they reconstruct one of the moments that has most marked the lives of the three of them: the Atocha murders. A milestone that changed the course of Spanish politics and society and accelerated the consolidation of democracy.
