Synopsis: “This documentary tells the story, in first person, of several women who worked in the mines and who gave their health and almost their lives for a job that has almost always been associated with men. To do so, it goes into El Bierzo to trace its history, from the first mountain formations, to the present day with the total closure of the mines, causing strikes, and later unemployment and oblivion.”
