Has anyone else watched this documentary?

I downloaded and watched the first episode (there are six episodes, lasting about 50 minutes each). I was quite impressed - they interviewed a wide range of people - workers, peasants, landowners, army officers, Dolores Ibarruri, Franco's Brother-in-Law, Federica Montseny, various anarchist and communist militants, various government officials. The footage of the workers arming themselves, the riots and strikes, the burning of churches etc was really something too, and the presentation seemed quite fair. You can find it on piratebay if you're interested - and I think it's worth the watch.

I watched it too. Fascinating stuff. Though I think this should be in the films section.

Oh, sorry, I thought I did post it in the Literature and Films section.

If a moderator could move it, I'd be thankful.

I would watch it if they have closed caption. I am partial deaf on my both ears.
