Barcelona, 1918. A handful of housewives who in 1918 rebelled against an injustice, the 33% increase in the cost of coal, managed in just a fortnight to turn that decision into an unstoppable uprising by thousands of woman who managed, by themselves, to get what they were demanding: a reduction in the price of coal. Never before in history had a handful of women been able to bring down the power structure. A revolution guided by a small group of illiterate working women driven to desperation by the rising price of coal. That spontaneous and unusual rebellion defied Army, Police, Civil Government and even the CNT itself, who tried unsuccessfully to direct the steps of these women. Based on these real events lasting 15 days, we are creating a plot in eight episodes featuring women and illustrating the interests of traders and politicians, the solidarity of the ‘escorts’, the cruelty of police officer Bravo Portillo, the indifference of the Civil Governor, the ‘secret’ life of wealthy men, and we’ll also see the betrayal of women by women.
