Ich bin Enric Marco

Enric Marco, ex-president of Spain’s main deportees’ association, embarks on a car trip to Germany, a demythologising journey into his past. Two years earlier, a historian had shown that he wasn’t the member of the Resistance he had claimed to be, and that he’d made up the stories of his experiences in a concentration camp that he had been recounting on television. Now, Marco retraces the route of his 1941 train journey as part of a convoy of workers sent by Franco to Hitler. This trip, which will lead him to the Kiel prison where he would spend a year accused of spreading communist propaganda, before being absolved and returning to Spain, intersects with his oft-recounted imaginary journey at various points: from the French resistance to the concentration camps in cattle trucks - the fate suffered by thousands of exiled Spanish republicans after the Civil War.
The trip and the film end at Flossenbürg concentration camp: the place he never set foot in during the war, the place where he forged himself as the survivor that he can't manage to leave behind.
