In 1939, the unemployed British youth David, like many socialist youths from all over the world, joined an international guerrilla group to fight for democracy and freedom in the Spanish Civil War and fight against Franco's dictatorship. David came to Barcelona because of his injury. The tragic cry of blood during the war became his lingering nightmare. He found himself swayed between his loyalty to socialism and a new lover, but his dream of reform was not diminished by being far away from the battlefield, and he finally chose to return to his frontline comrades.
