The producers Irusoin, Moriarti Productions y The clapperboard will roll The infinite trench, new project from the creators of big y The flowers. Aitor Arregi, Jon Garaño and Jose Mari Goenaga will present this production on story of a fictional “mole”, which will be filmed this summer in different locations in Andalusia and the Basque Country.

The “moles” were those men and women who during the Civil War and in the post-war period decided to hide (many times in their own home) in order to avoid reprisals, and their confinement was lengthened until in some cases exceeding 33 years of self-confinement. At first they did it out of simple prudence; later in the hope that it would end soon... By the time many of them could realize it, a fear that went beyond any reasoning had taken root deep within them and had become an essential part of their character.

Antonio de la Torre and Belén Cuesta They will be the protagonists of this story filmed in Andalusia, and in which the rest of the casting will join in the coming weeks.

Con screenplay by Luiso Berdejo and Jose Mari Goenaga, The infinite trench It is intended to be an allegory about fear. Through a physical confinement we will talk about a psychological confinement: About the fear of being discovered, the fear of taking the step, the fear of showing oneself as one is.

In this sense, the story of the 'moles' connects with that of many other people who had to hide in the context of international wars. From the two and a half years that Anne Frank hid from the Nazis, to the more than 25 years that the Japanese soldier Teruo Nekamura was hidden after the end of World War II.
