Sinopsis

“Spain, The First Globalization” focuses on defending and disseminating certain facts of our complex and exciting history. The documentary dismantles the lies of a propaganda operation so effective in the past, that it has managed to internalize the very descendants of those Spaniards from the peninsula and America. It offers new readings on the historical period that began in the reign of the Catholic Monarchs, the discovery of America and the subsequent evolution of the history of Spain, dismantling the black legend at a time as necessary as the current one.
