Spain- 1974:
After almost forty years of tiranny, the dictator´s health is falling apart. Meanwhile, the enemies of the regime are gaining strength and the popular support is decreasing. But some people havn’t given up yet. The heads of the state still believe in the perpetuation of the dictatorial system, even after 'Paco’s death.
To do so, they need to keep the population away from politics. Football used to be the answer. But now that they are facing a significant problem, they go directly to the national carmaker with a mission:
They want to introduce a flamboyant new sports car, produced nationally. A cheap car, accesible for the common people, but at the same time a good performer, because the mysterious Mr. B is looking to fund a single make race cup for it:
