You make a journey of 2,000 kms.
in just over a day.

:37:04
It's crazy. The poor little thing,
all this journey.

Widow of the "ertzaina"
(Basque policeman) Ramón Doral,

:37:13
assassinated by ETA in 1996.
:37:17
When they killed Montxo,
Jokin was just 18 months old.

:37:22
He kept saying: "Aita?",
as if asking 'Where's Daddy?"

:37:26
I would answer:
"Aita, joan da"

:37:29
Daddy's gone.
:37:31
At first,
that was enough.

:37:33
He was away for three years,
in exile,

:37:36
then he was arrested
in Barcelona.

:37:38
We met up when we were both
in a group of militants,

:37:42
when we were young.
:37:44
One day, in the car, he asked me:
"Why did they kill him?"

:37:50
I explained that some men
thought his "aita"was bad

:37:54
and they decided to kill him.
:37:56
I've been going to visit
a relative for fourteen years.

:38:01
The only thing I can do
is offer him this support,

:38:03
go and visit him.
:38:04
He said: "Then I'm going
to kill them", and I told him:

:38:07
"Thinking someone is bad
is no reason to kill him.

:38:11
You could be wrong".
:38:12
40 minutes in a little cubicle,
:38:15
where you can't hear anything,
you aren't comfortable.

:38:19
He never asked me how
he was killed. A friend told him.

:38:23
She said that they'd put a bomb
in his father's car.

:38:26
He always thought
that they'd shot him.
