Other titles:SPANISH CIVIL WAR MATERIAL [Alternative Title]
Summary: Roughly edited material relating to the Spanish Civil War (from a pro-Franco viewpoint).
Description: The first sequence appears to be a reconstruction of the capture by Nationalists and Italians of Porto Cristo in Majorca, including film possibly showing the release of Nationalist prisoners. The second sequence shows Republican militia firing on the Alcazar in Toledo, and film of streetfighting, casualties and ruins possibly taken at the end of the siege. Third (the only passage accompanied by a soundtrack, which speaks of "new victories for religious and moral values" and Spain's "new era of peace, progress and social justice") is film of Falange buglers and standard-bearers. The fourth sequence shows Franco (with General Mola, in Burgos?) cheered by crowds, appearing on the balcony of a Falange HQ etc, and a parade of troops, youth organisations etc through a town with superimposed Falange symbol and slogans.
