18/11/14 - El tren de la memoria

It is a documentary about the people that had to emigrate to other countries to survive. There are a lot of cases and people and the talk about their experiences.

"El tren de la memoria" is about the train that 2 millions of Spaniards took to go to Europe in the 60's and 70's, to improve their economical situation. They went there without knowing the language (even the 80% were illiterate), without knowing anyone or knowing how they would be in the future.

Most of this people had never left their village and seen cities as big and beautyfull as those. They were stranges in a place strange for them, and the had never had the opportunity to integrate in the socity, economy or culture of those cities.

This situation happened in Spain 40 years ago, but noadays it is being repeated in a lot of countries: the foreigner people that enter in a country and they are treated really bad, as if they weren't humans. They do the worst jobs for a little amount of money, with no contract and live in really bad conditions.

This happened 40 years ago to Spanish people that were exploit in the 1968's Germany and it is being repeated now on Spain to people that come here looking for a job.

We should think about this situation, and ask to the people that moved to differents parts of Europe if they liked how they were treated in those countries, and then think about the emigrants that live here and how we are treating them.
