Historia
Gernika follows Henry, an American correspondent in Spain during the early stages of the Spanish Civil War, who has lost his sense of purpose and humanity due to the atrocities he has witnessed. Teresa, a censor for the Republic, oversees the news that journalists like Henry can send abroad. Their paths cross when they both arrive in Gernika, a small town near Bilbao where the rebel Nationalists are threatening to bomb. As they grapple with their personal demons and the harsh realities of war, they begin an intense relationship amidst the impending danger.
