February 1939. Overwhelmed by the flood of Republicans fleeing the Franco dictatorship, the French government houses them in camps. Two men separated by the barbed wire will become friends. One is a gendarme, the other a cartoonist. From Barcelona to New York, this film tells the true story of Josep Bartolí, anti-Franco fighter and exceptional artist.
