Are you really going to write a book
about my father

:31:26
and Sánchez Mazas in the forest?
:31:28
I don't know yet.
:31:31
Did your father often tell you
:31:33
- about Sánchez Mazas?
- Sometimes. But the thing is

:31:36
I didn't use to pay much attention.
I regret that now.

:31:41
Now he's gone.
:31:43
Towards the end of the war
he was wounded

:31:46
and when he was discharged
from the hospital,

:31:50
he came home to Cornellá del Terri.
:31:53
Since the Nationalists had taken
Barcelona and were coming this way,

:31:58
he decided not to go back
to the front and stayed at home.

:32:02
It was at that time that Quim
and Daniel Angelats came back too

:32:06
and they went to the forest
to wait for the war to end.

:32:10
That was where
they came across Sánchez Mazas.

:32:14
- Anything else?
- You could

:32:16
talk to my Uncle Quim.
:32:19
Your uncle?
:32:21
My father's brother.
One of the "Forest Friends."

:32:24
He's still alive?
:32:26
Yes, he lives in Medinyá.
He'd know about Daniel Angelats.

:32:31
They served together in the war.
:32:33
If he's still alive
he'll be in Banyoles.

:32:37
And did they ever write
or see each other again?

:32:40
They never wrote
:32:42
to each other again,
but my father died 15 years ago

:32:46
and among his papers I found
a notebook you might find useful.

:32:50
It was Sánchez Mazas'.
:32:52
He gave it to them.
:32:54
It was the diary he wrote during
the days he spent in the forest.
