Brigadista (1985)

When best-selling author James Fuller Hayes comes to Glasgow to publicise his personal account of the Spanish Civil War, a surprise reunion with two of his old comrades from the International Brigade reveals contradictory & devastating information. Technically, this was the last Play For Today ever made by the BBC, but it wasn't broadcast under the strand.
