Based on the real-life story of Aranzazu Berradre Marín, the pseudonym for the only police officer in Spanish history to successfully infiltrate ETA, the Basque-nationalist terrorist group, Undercover, she lurks in ETA-affiliated circles. Suddenly, the unimaginable happens - ETA contacts her, requesting her to be an accomplice in the preparation of oncoming attacks. What ensues is an experience nobody could have prepared her for, and the film undertakes these complex, polemic issues, exploring both the political history of the terrorist group and this woman’s sacrifice for her role in helping dismantle them.
This screening will be introduced by Dr. Fiona Noble and followed by a discussion with María Sánchez and Jackie Collins.
In partnership with the Edinburgh Spanish Film Festival.
