Una historia hecha de muchas historias. ¿Cuál es exactamente la historia de España? La historia de España puede explicarse a través de la épica, de los grandes momentos que marcaron un antes y un despues: puede ser la llegada de Colon a America o la voz de la Pasionaria, el imperio donde no se ponia el sol o el desastre de la Armada Invencible. Pero tambien puede ser mucho mas de lo que imaginamos. Puede ser las redes de apoyo de La Cofradia de Pescadoras de Bermeo, la lucha de las heroinas de Numancia o la tenacidad de la huelga de la Canadiense. Puede ser un viaje lleno de grandes gestas y pequeños logros, de luces y sombras, de solidaridad, conflicto, comunidad y resistencia, y de realidades que pocas veces se han explicado. Acompaña al guionista, dibujante y profesor de historia Pedro Cifuentes en este recorrido apasionante por la compleja formacion de nuestro pais. Un comic que desmitifica, cuestiona y revela las multiples caras de un territorio en constante transformacion. Descubre la historia de España que nunca se han atrevido a contarte.
