Spain in the 1930s is the place to be for a man of action like Robert Jordan. There is a civil war going on and Jordan—who has joined up on the side that appeals most to idealists of that era—has been given a high-risk assignment up in the mountains. He awaits the right time to blow up a crucial bridge in order to halt the enemy's progress.

While most war epics focus on the movement of armies, this intimate drama traps its breath in a single, ticking moment of mountain guerrilla combat. A desperate romance blooms amidst the heavy shadows of a bridge demolition mission that feels far more personal than any battlefield clash.
