It was the period between 1930 and 1940 that Barcelona, following the impetus for urban planning that came with International Exposition, exalted itself with the declaration of the Republic, embraced modernity and social progress, experienced revolution in the air and finally suffered the ravages of the Spanish Civil War. La ciutat d’abans de la guerra [The City before the War] takes an exceptional look at the some of the unique years that make up our collective memory: a turbulent and extraordinary decade, which the city lived through intensively, between peace and conflict, modernity and tradition, hope and defeat.
