Overview

In February 1939, the paths of those fleeing Francoist Spain on one side and the advancing Nazis on the other crossed along the Pyrenees. Anarchists and socialists, Jews and partisans, in an exodus with no safe destination. Among them Walter Benjamin, one of the greatest European intellectuals of the 20th century.
