“Madrid, 1933. Tristán Valdivia, a journalist without a newspaper, an editor without success, and a lover without illusion, leaves the capital to return to the north. There, his father, the Marquis of Montecorvo, awaits him. These are difficult times for the country, immersed in the convulsions of the Second Republic, and the old aristocrat must maintain himself at the head of his private fiefdom: the Northwest Mining Company. From the darkness of the mining valleys of Asturias emerge luminous characters, and under the deafening roar of the coal mines, one can hear the whisper of an ancient song. The old and new times clash brutally, testing the protagonist, soon to be the entire humanity. This is the sound of The Ballad of the North”. (Astiberri)
