In 2011, the prolonged armed conflict in the Basque Country appears to come to an end. A young woman flees with a clear goal: to cross the border. She arrives in Zubieta, a border village where ancient myths and modern conflicts seem to converge. Time passes — a hazy, indefinite passage in which days blur into nights and nights into days. Her escape becomes increasingly complicated and labyrinthine.

Negu hurbilak was born out of the need to talk about the weight of silence. We did not start this journey to find answers or certainties. We did it to find ourselves in the ruins of the Basque conflict.
