Ken Loach’s Land and Freedom stars Ian Hart as David, a disillusioned Liverpudlian who decides to follow his principles and join the fight against fascism in Spain.
Joining a poorly armed Republican alliance, he becomes enmeshed in the desperate struggle to protect the country’s democratic government from Franco’s advancing armies.
David bonds deeply with his comrades, especially the beautiful Blanca (Rosana Pastor), but is dismayed as political infighting threatens to plunge the whole resistance movement into turmoil.
