In 2011, when ETA announced the definitive cessation of its armed activity in Spain, a young woman arrives to Zubieta, a small village by the Bidassoa river and the border with France. She wants to cross the border but, waiting for the sign, she will have to wait much longer than expected. In this isolated place, time, scopes and perspectives begin to blur. Negu Hurbilak is a powerful and unconventional project exploring the consequences of having to bear silence and the cost of working under secrecy, including the disappearance of individual identity as well as family and emotional ties. The directing credit of Negu Collective keeps the consistency between the production of the film and its story, the ruins of the Basque conflict.
