Synopsis: 

In the 1960s and 1970s, immigrants from the Spanish regions of Extremadura and Andalusia built much of Barcelona's suburbs. They were not considered part of the city. Their shacks did not even have running water or electricity.

Fed up with the City Council saying that public transport could not serve these areas because the streets were too narrow and unsafe, Manolo Vital, a bus driver for Barcelona's public transport operator, sets out to demonstrate behind the wheel of the bus of Route 47, that the authorities were wrong.

Shot in: Barcelona, Montcada i Reixac, Manresa.
